Always winter but never Christmas. I finally “got” that quote from Narnia today.
That’s how it feels around here. Sure there’s a tree, lights, and presents, but it something’s just not right. We started decorating a few weeks ago, but after opening a box or two everyone just gave up.
These is so much good, but right now it feels like we are drowning in winter.
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.

Agreed. Here I sit in our hotel room, with our mini tree up and a family waiting to celebrate with us and I could give a rip about Christmas. I love baby Jesus, but I’m just not feeling it this year. As far as I’m concerned, there is no Christmas without daddy and I never knew or imagined I’d feel this way! Hugs and prayers for you, sister.

I remember that quote. Hugs, prayers, and remember we’re thinking of you all!
