Gifts from Daddy

We got our first package from Kirke yesterday! We were very excited! He sent each of the boys a t-shirt with their name sewn on them in English and Arabic. He sent me a blanket with an American flag and the Statue of Liberty on it. It was so great to get to hold something in my hands that his hands had touched only days before that. Being able to sleep under the blanket that kept him warm a few days ago is an amazing comfort to me also.


The boys loved their new shirts so we took pictures. Kirke did so good by getting them each their favorite color!
I did not make them stand this close to the wall, they're killing me! Silly boys!
Like I had to force them to stand there or something, come on guys, relax a little would ya?


Kirke,

The boys and I love you and we miss you so much. Our days will go on with a missing piece until you're home to hold us and make us smile again. Be safe baby we love you and thank you for the gifts!

Love us forever,

Michelle and Your Boys

I love it when my hubby sends me stuff from Iraq. It really makes my day even if it's just a note shoved in an envelope.

I hope your time passes quickly!
