Today was a really hard day. I’m not sure why today was so much harder than all the other days but it was.
I’m not sad, depressed, or overly tired. I’m just done.
It’s a strange mix of emotions and I never know exactly how I should be feeling. I just want things to be normal. And if normal means we’re a one parent family for the next nine months I’m okay with that. I just want it to be how it is.
It’s really hard to explain, but I’m sure many of you understand.
Tomorrow will be better.
My husband has been deployed to the Middle East for 274 days. These are my real thoughts expressing my heart during his absence. I appreciate your prayers and kind words as we cope, adapt, and carry on without him until August 2014. To read from the beginning, click here.

Everyday will become a little more normal. That doesn’t make it easy, in fact it will be very hard but you’re past the hardest part. Now you just need a routine. You can do this!

Bless your heart….I will be keeping up with your blog as my son in law must deploy next June so I’d like to prepare myself for how best to support my daughter. Praying for you and your family….

I am sure today was a little better in its own way. I agree with your post it is the little things. I am glad you are writing this down. It will be good to look back on and I can’t wait to share it with others who’s husbands are deployed. Thank you for sharing with us. I’m praying for you and your family.
