Gonna be a long Fall....

John left this morning for FLETC in GA. He's so happy and I am too for all it means for our family to come (especially moving back across the bridge near my family!) But this is going to be a long 12 weeks for us. Both boys asked where he was this morning, hopefully not an indication of what's to come. We are already planning going to see him in a couple weeks, meeting up in between, and I'm going to try to fill my weekends so time goes by quicker. But it still won't be the same. I just have to remind myself it's only temporary, and like he said, it could be worse, just think what it would be like had he reenlisted in the military!
