It's time to get my blog on again. Sorry that I have been such a slacker for the last two years. Being so close to family and old friends has lulled me into a sense of carnal security and blog abandonment. But today I will throw off this cloak of passivity and join my fellow bloggers in keeping the world informed of our adventures.
Speaking of adventures, Troy is leaving for military training July ninth and will eventually end up in Iraq. I will be residing with my parents in southern Utah. Am I excited for this change? Yes and No. I have always loved change and adventure but this one is bitter sweet. I will enjoy being close to family and making new memories with my daughter. But I am not excited about being separated from Troy.
How are we going to bare it? As the teacher in Relief Society put it so nicely today..."I signed up for this but I do not have to do it alone." So that is how so many men and women throughout the history of the world have dealt with similar situations. Whether they knew it or not they were being watched over and blessed by a power greater than themselves. And so shall we!
Fair Winds!
