Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentines Day to all my family and friends. Even though Valentines day should be expressed EVERY day, I want you all to know that we love you and hope you feel loved on this day.

I also want to share a HUGE blessing that happened over the weekend. Caleb told me about a week ago that he will be coming home around Feb. 21st. The earliest that he would have been back was the 17th (his birthday!), so I was a little sad that we were going to miss celebrating it together.

Last Thursday, he called...to ask if I could pick him on Saturday night! Apparently, there's a course that he has to take here at Cherry Point that starts today, and his CO sent him back early to complete it before the deployment!!!!!! SO, he came back around 11:40pm on Saturday night and even though we were SUPER tired on Sunday, we're both very happy that he's home early. I couldn't be happier or feel more blessed than I do now.

Happy V-Day everyone! (he surprised me with a gorgeous bouquet of roses)

  1. aww what a gift! I'm so happy you get to be together for an extra week!

    Let Caleb know we're so proud of him, and that we've prayed for him and for you while you were apart. Enjoy your time together!
