With the deployment, we know there are numerous challenges that we will be facing; with saying good-bye being the first and most challenging one of all. This will be tough, but I know we will prosper and get through this. We will support our Soldier/Hubby/Father in every way he needs it, and give him kisses at night before we go to sleep.
Now that he is gone, Brayden has been doing all right. We have had our good and bad days, the good outweighing the bad—so that is positive. Brayden and I will be staying very busy, because I am in school full-time, Brayden still is attending Lil’ Kickers and Gymboree, and we have other outdoor activities scheduled for this summer. If there is a will there is a way and that is the motto I plan to implement this next year. In addition, things will only get worse before they get better.
Thankfully, we have such magnificent family and friends giving us the support system we desire. Our thoughts and prayers are with Michael and we will continue to give him kisses and hugs every night ensuring his safe return!
We love you, babe and we will continue to pray for your safety, health, and courage upon your journey this next year! You mean everything to us, and without you, a piece of us is missing—life is just not the same! We look forward to your return, so we can proceed and live the life you and I both want for Brayden and ourselves!
Packing up the truck to get ready to leave!

Not so happy. :-(
Such a proud little boy! Stand tall my son, you deserve it!
Our sweet-baby Brayden took this picture all by himself of his Mommy and Daddy! 
Look at this face! :-(

God bless you Mike! May you accomplish your mission and return home safely. You will be missed. Certainly, the look on Brayden's face tells us all that he was sad to see his Daddy leave.
My prayers are with you, and with Sarah & Brayden in the coming year. Sarah's shoulders are strong and she will do whatever it takes to
.. she will do whatever it takes
God Bless all of the soldiers serving over seas! It is a great sacrifice for them and their families! Being apart for a long period of time is never easy. & that is why we do not say "good-bye" ~ "we will see you soon"! There is no doubt about it, that to us a year may feel like a life time but it probably will feel like an eternity to a soldier living in a foreign country. All we can do is be strong and rely on the support of family & friends!Send our thoughts and prayers over seas and hope that one day soon that war will end!
Stay strong Sarah! Luv you guys!
Mike please bring yourself and the rest of your troops home safely!
Love you!
