Annette- I must have missed that post, my prayers to you and your family!!!! My Step-son is going in Feb., also, for the second time. His wife is going to have baby #4, and he will not see it until it will be at least 6 weeks old. He has already done one 6 month Tour, and now he is going back for another 14 months. It is a hard time, but we must all pray daily for our troops and their safety!!!!!!! We are leaving the day after Christmas to go to North Carolina to visit them for a week. I know it will be so hard for my husband when we leave.
