As you can tell from the picture, we have moved on into our next phase of our life; the long deployment ahead for the next 12 months. I would rather post the picture here, than on my car. Although, it would be a good laugh on the car.
Jeremy has moved from one area to another. We haven't talked in a week; but heck, that beats the four month stretch during the initial invasion.
Seth has gone to summer camp already and returned. It was nice for awhile, no children screaming at each other. But it was missed and then not missed after 30 minutes of the two of them together this afternoon. Seth will be heading off here very soon to summer school. He wants to play on the soccer team this year, so we will see how registration goes for him next week.
Anna will be going to preschool this year. Please pray that they put her in the same school as Seth. Seth does not attend the school where we lived because we felt the school he was currently attending at the time we moved was much better. So they have put Anna in the school where our attendance area is, but I am not sure how that will work because I have to take both of them to school with Jeremy being gone. So I am really hoping that they will help me out because of our precarious situation. She will also be attending ballet classes this fall, from friends in our old church ward.
The church has change our boundaries, this is not a bad thing. We are very excited and have already made some great friends. Anna is having trouble attending Sunbeams. With the ward change, she lost friends. But at the same time, it was her birthday so she graduated from Nursery to Sunbeams. She has a very big separation issue. My friends have already informed our Relief Society, that I won't be attending their class because I spend my life in the very loud Sunbeams class. Now as along as they don't make me a teacher for the class, I will be so thrilled. Seth was baptized and confirmed just before Jeremy left. He was baptized with a family from Liberia, so it was a very nice evening.
Things were crazy when Jeremy left. First Anna was sick the night before Seth's baptism and then the next day Jeremy washed his cell phone in the washer. We ended up buying a new car. In Georgia, Jeeps are only 2WD, so the six thousand dollars to fix it and the 2WD issue made it an ideal decision to buy a new car. We seemed to spend most of our last days helping everyone else out it seemed, before he left. There was little time for us to spend together, but I guess that goes with the territory the higher he gets. It was alright though, I spent my last day with him sick to my stomach the entire day. Apparently this stomach issues seems to flare up ever couple of weeks and it picked a really bad day. Since he has left I have only been sick once. I did have lunch with some great friends the other day and I can say that I am very proud because I have kept it down.
I have had people ask me for Jeremy's address. Right now, I do not want to give you the address that I was given by RD because I want to make sure it is correct when Jeremy gets to his FOB. So please be patient, I hope to have it soon. But I would rather get it from him because all the other times I have received it from RD, it was always wrong.
Best Wishes,
