I am currently reading the Mom's Devotional Bible. I'm enjoying the nightly devotions after my crazy days. As some of you know, my husband left to go overseas-again. It's not easy being a "single mom!" I don't think it's easy to be a mom, period. Anyway, I get home to my 3 very active boys after working 8-9 hours a day, the house is a mess, they need to go to practices, dinner and laundry need to be taken care of. I can pity myself, but I know that I have to be strong and keep my cool when my patience is wearing thin. I am very thankful for the wonderful people around me that help me out and encourage me when time is tough. I wouldn't trade my crazy life for anything...

Amanda, hang in there I know it must be hard with Wade being gone. Just know that you have your church family to turn to if you need anything and the mom's here on the blog.
i'm so sorry, that would be so hard. when did he leave? let me know if you need anything at all.
Amanda, first of all when you talk to your husband tell him thank you for serving our country and securing the freedom that our fathers from the past so valiantly fought for, and for keeeping all of us safe. Secondly, what a task of being the one to hold down the fort while your husband is fighting for us. If you happen to have a fix that needs fixing or want someone to mow the yard here and there please let me know. It would be a great honor to serve the family of a man whom is serving our country for our families. Phone 233-5406. You are an awesome mom and keep up the great work that you are doing. Brian Corderman (Gina's husband)
What a woman! I can't imagine how hard it must be. When my dear husband is gone for just a week, we so miss him. When our daughter is crying when her daddy leaves, I always tell her that we should feel guilty for being so whiney when our military families face such long separations. That usually puts things into perspective for us. But on top of the separation, having to do it all and take care of 3 ittle ones has to be so very hard. Like my husband said give us a shout out if you need anything.
Sorry, didn't know he was out again! I know how hard it is even with a husband around to help take care of the kids. Cause, Hey, I'm right there with ya. Between the two of us, our kids give us MUCH excitement in our lives.
Greg is usually never gone but for a few hours or so when he goes to Sherrif... But I know even then, the kids ask for him, ALOT.
Call if you need relief from 1, 2 or even all 3 sometime. I'll just hook 'em up with my kids and they'll keep eachother occupied. I'll text you my #s, so you can save them on your cell. Quick access to me!
If you'd like to come over also, that would be fine also. I may just call you every now and then to make sure you'll take me up on my offer.
We are usually home. All except for this weekend. Greg and I are getting away for our anniversary.
CALL ME!!!-KATHY
