deployment

So I haven't been on here in forever but her is the only place I can say safely about vincents deployment... Well hes leaving Sunday the 14th at 130 and his phone will be shut off Monday. He is going to a very dangerous place and wont have internet too much so what i hear will be here not Facebook because its not very safe. Vince will be back in a year so everyday will be that much more precious. Today at his farewell ceremony his family came out for it and we spent the day with them, Vanessa just loves her aunt Jamie she loves to suck on her face, she doesn't do it too often. They bought us lunch and took us out to dinner at ihop which was nice and we also chat about what we were planning on doing to getting me moved out to Utah while Vince is deployed. Vincent got a fathers blessing from his dad before dinner, it was a nice prayer and Vanessa talked through the whole thing we all laughed after. After dinner we went back to the hotel they were staying to say family prayer, Sara said it and during it she got real quiet and I was like "why did she stop talking?" i took a peak and she started to cry than his mom started and he gave his youngest sister a hug and she started crying. Makes you think how much this 12 year old has heard and how big a difference moving to a different state and going to war is to someone this young. We all got our hugs and we left, tomorrow before he leaves we plan on getting Vanessa a build a bear and hope to find more books to record his voice on them since he wont have Skype and i would like her to know who this man is that mommy is kissing and hugging at the airport at r and r and after deployment.
