I'm pretty sure I haven't been on here in almost a year. What a year it has been!! My sister and her children have moved out. My brother has moved in and then moved out. I have finished my Master's degree. Arvelle is getting ready to ship off to Afghanistan. There have been a whirlwind of highs and lows in my family and through it all we are still whole. As the kids get ready to embark on another school year I look at them with pride. They have fought through so many obstacles and come so far. Being a military kid is never easy and they have taken each move we have had with grace and made the best of it and accomplished great things. I hope that they will always know how grateful and proud I am of them. We will see what the next year..and the Army hold for us...and we will take whatever is thrown at us and run with it...like we always do:)
