HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY.:love: :birthday: . I hope you had a GREAT day. It was nice my parents came up and spent time with us.
This is a day that is the beginning of a new life for us... You have started the countdown to going to AZ. This is a hard day for me because you are leaving in 4 days for a new begininng, a job and getting to see our family in AZ. I am going to miss you more than words can ever express. I know in my mind that this is the right thing to do, but my heart is feeling the complete opposite.

It is hard for me to think of celebrating your b-day today and in 4 days I have to say goodbye to my VERY best friend in the world for God know's how long. I am going to miss you more than you may know and I know our son is feeling this as well. I often wonder if this is what I want for the simple fact that we will be separated, but then I remember we are doing this for ALL the right reasons. You are my rock, my KING, my everything and I will miss you dearly....I also think WOW, my best friend is taking a chance and leaving behind his world to better our world....I am soooooooooo proud of you for what you are doing to better our life. Yes I am ready for this new life....am I ready to let you go for an undetermined amount of time....My head says yes my heart says ????????...
SO, good luck on this new beginning. We will wait steadfast for you and will always be thinking of you. Remember WE love you and will miss you GREATLY.
Shawn and Joanna......WOW. Can words truly express how I feel about you and what you are doing for us? It is hard to find those words. Grateful, loving, heroic, gracious.....I can't even think. I love you both so much for helping us and opening your hearts and home to a family of which only 1 member you have met. We love you and I cannot wait to get there.
Silverback and Karen, Jack, Billy, Jerry and Denise, Smoke, IZ, Dallas and Janis, Greg and Tina......I am SO sorry if I have forgotten names....You ALL are our family and I am soooooooooooooo proud to be part of it. Thank you for the support, thoughts and prayers. :star:
