Well, Shelby flew home this past Sunday and Sam flew out to his Grandmothers for a week the same day. Shelbys visit with us was the best one we've had yet! She gave Mark her cell phone number (prior to this she kept it a secret although I already knew what it was!), she thanked Mark for her birthday gift (we've NEVER had a thank you from her for anything!) and she was just a joy to have around. As the other kids were still in school the week she was here, she and I were able to spend time doing things together and had a great time shopping and going out for lunch. Sam is spending his spring break at his grandmothers, and I am hoping his father shows up for more than a few days.....
So now THIS week, our other kids (Sam,Paige and Ben) are on their spring break! We've gone to the movies on base twice this week (free matinees all week) and are headed to see Nancy Drew as soon as I get this blog done!
Sam flies home on Sunday and Mark flies out for parts unknown. He is going on a business related trip for two weeks. This will be the first time in about three years that he has been gone (drydock etc so no going out to sea!) and we will miss him greatly! He has somehow conned me into taking MY laptop with him so that we can email each other and that we can all play pogo together in the evenings....I SUPPOSE it's worth giving up my little baby for two weeks so I can have contact with him everyday! :)
Off to the movies we go!
Hugs to all,
Jaye
