I am over at Chrissy's tonight doing laundry, since I sold our washer and dryer a few days ago. Mason is also here so his mommy and daddy can have some time to themselves. The kids play and play and play. Cameron is always put to bed first, and then Mason usually joins short after. Rea though, plays all night. She fights and fights to stay awake. Sometimes I think she just likes to play alone with everyone elses toys. Right now, it's 10:44 and she's still up. Maybe I will get lucky and she will sleep in tomorrow. Today, I packed up some more. I organized Zach's things, Chrissy is letting me keep his army stuff here, so I don't have to take everything back to Alaska and then back to Texas in less than a year. I also started packing up Rea's things, I figure I will pack a little suitcase for Saima to use while I am not there, and then a larger suitcase for me to use while I am in Kotzebue. Rea was excited to help, she kept trying to put everything in the suitcases and she was smiling really big. She knows something is up! I also started packing the clothes that I know I wont wear while i'm here, like jeans and long sleeve shirts. Rea was pretty cranky by the time I decided to stop packing, so I put her to sleep and shortly after, I joined her. I didn't realize that I fell asleep, and when I opened my eyes, it had been about two hours! She started making her poop face and I rushed her to the toilet. I left the bathroom, as I usually do, to get wipes. But when I came back this time, she was standing up backwards! I'm glad she didn't fall. We came over to Chrissy's to do laundry and Rea has had a pretty rough night. She has had multiple run ins with Cameron, mostly on accident and Mason bit her on the cheek. She still has a little red mark, but she's okay. Mason usually is the one being bullied, and tonight he was completley different. He was the bully, he even made Cameron cry! Really though, nothing special happened. It was another "normal" day. Chrissy leaves soon to Michigan for a family reunion and they don't get back until the day that we leave )= So sad, i'll miss a few things about Texas, and Cam and Chrissy are two of them! Tomorrow a friend of mine is having a romance party, I am looking forward to hanging out with girls. As soon as our laundry is done, Rea and I are headed home to bed! I am super duper tired! I hope Rea is too, because if she somehow stays up extra late again I might just fall asleep on her.
Dear deployment,
I didn't get to talk to my hero today, but he's busy learning. I'm not worried about him. I always remember that no news is good news. I hope though, that you don't keep me from talking to him on his birthday, because that might be a tough day, but i'm tough I'll survive our first anniversary without him too, because I know that we have many more years to celebrate together! Love, Elsa...
