So coming home was hard last night. Our "see you soon" was very hard for me and I tried REALLY hard not to cry but wasn't very successful. When my mom and I drove away, I continued to cry on and off for a little bit. Then Cody called about 15 minutes later and said we needed to turn around and pick up some things he wasn't supposed to have with him so I got to say another "see you later" without tears :). Then we headed back on the road for home. The trip back was a little rough since my mom hasn't been feeling well and also because I hadn't driven that long of a drive all by myself before. It was quite an adventure to say the least though! I have pictures up on my Facebook if you'd like to check them out. I forgot, again, to get a picture of Cody, Oliver, and I before we left. I think we all were just focused on the parting ways part of the night that we didn't think to set aside time for it before hand. But we'll get one for sure when Oliver and I go for Christmas. Cody says it's supposed to be -3 degrees in the morning and then warm up to about 10 tomorrow. I hope he doesn't get any sicker and can stay healthy! I'm going to go to bed early tonight for sure since I only got about five and a half or so hours of sleep after getting up at 7 yesterday morning, then going to bed when I got home around 5:15 in the morning today after a long and emotional day and driving all the way home.
Oliver Update: He's able to sit up right by himself. Not sit up by himself, but if I sit him down, he can keep himself sitting up for at least a little while. And today he discovered that he's flexible enough to put his feet in his mouth too! He's starting to reach for people too.

aww That video is just precious and beautiful. Your family is sooo beautiful :) Ohhh i remember the feeling of sending Josh off for basic. I think I have kinda blocked off my emotions but whenever Josh is back they flood out....
ReplyDeleteI love it too! Thanks! I was miserable for two and a half months then busy the two weeks before I went to go watch him graduate then I was fine the last three months cause they FLEW BY let me tell you lol. It's hitting me that I'm not going to see Cody, hear Cody, be with Cody, any of that stuff we'd usually take for granted though. Not cool. Although if I didn't feel anything, there'd be cause for concern. I just need to get back into writing everyday cause that'll definitely help alleviate some of the anxiety. And talking with you of course, cause you're such a great friend and very supportive.
