tuesday started out as a day of hating goodbyes... but the more i thought about it... it is not such a bad thing...
yes, i had to once again say goodbye to brent as he goes in for more training... and we are not exactly sure when we will see or speak with one another... i felt my heart drop again, not in a good way... it was like starting all over again... the same feelings as when he had to leave for boot camp on april 20th... even though this time it is only for three short weeks and he should have some phone privileges, i still hated saying goodbye...
... but then i thought about it, trying to be positive... when i am saying goodbye to mesa, i am then saying hello to brent... and... when brent says goodbye to camp pendleton... he is saying hello to me...
if i can, i just want to ask one favor for all of those who are lucky enough to see their loves tonight... please give them an extra hug and kiss... just because you can... remember how lucky you are to hold them, smell them and just talk and hear their voice... i dont write this in self pity, so please dont think that i am looking for that... i just wish for this: everyone that has the chance and opportunity to be together, remember that many others dont have that chance... and long for it.
now, i must stop and get on the next part... i have so many wonderful pictures to post... we had some of the most amazing and best 10 days of our lives... we had so much fun... i will catch up as fast as i can...
p.s. this is what he had to wear to the airport... his dress uniform...

K hopefully that was the last good-bye for a loooong time! I think you should come visit again to pass some time :)
I completely understand how you feel Errin! I don't think it ever gets easier but you gain a greater, stronger love for one another! Hang in there!
