He called at 1 a.m. to say he had landed in Baltimore! Yeah!!!!! A group of 15 to 20 people from a local organization meet every plane carrying returning troops. They take pictures, have posters and cheer. Vince was very moved and had a chance to talk with several of the folks there about what they do. He mentioned how all the Iraqis he had worked with were so appreciative of U.S. efforts there. They said they hear the same thing from all the soldiers returning. We don't get that report here!
All is still on for Aug 30th!! I leave tomorrow to join him for the next week!! Hooray!!!

May God bless both of your travels! I know that it can be very difficult to transition from being the mom in charge of the household, to making the decision to hand that authority back over to your husband when he returns after having been gone... it's possible, hang in there!
We are soooo proud of everything that you have done and all the sacrifices that both you and your family have made in order to go to Iraq and serve... Thank you!
We all look forward to seeing you home safely!
