Well after 17 days of having Michael home he went back to Iraq yesterday. It was a hard day for us all. Ciarrah kept saying that he couldn't go back to work that he had to stay home with us. I wish it were that easy. It about broke his heart having to listen to her tell him that. My parents went with all of us to the airport, they stayed with Ciarrah while I walked back with him through security and watched him board the plane. Ciarrah didn't want to go cause she knew he was leaving she is too smart for her own good lol. Cooper seems to be okay, I guess though he doesn't really understand. We are getting through things one day at a time.
This time if felt a little harder for me to let him go than the first time. I am not really sure why, but it did. I think it may have been because I watched him REALLY bond with Cooper and Cooper really bonded with him. Ciarrah and him had a great time, she really loves her daddy and misses him. Well me, I had a hard time, it will just take time to readjust to him not being here again. Sometimes I wish we didn't have the opportunity to have 2 weeks leave, because I think it makes it more difficult on all of us involved.
We did have a great time while he was here though. We did lots of stuff as a family. Check out the pics. For Michael's bday we went to the casino. It was a great time. Michael had never been to a casino before so it was a lot of fun. Although he sucks at gambling lol. He lost every time he played. He played slots and blackjack and lost alot of money, but hey it was his bday so its all good. Also while he was home, we got to drink together. We have never drank together only because shortly after we moved in together I got pregnant and after I was done being pregnant, well he was getting ready to leave. So we got to actually drink together it was fun time. We did get new family pictures as well. Take a look
