See ya in a year :(

as most of you know, robby left today for his 12 month 'vacation' to the sand box! it's been a long time coming, but i don't think it makes it any easier. we had a great last weekend together and had a lot of fun. we had to take him in very very early this morning. jaydn did amazing well and didn't shed a tear, which i think really helped robby and i to do better. although, as robby was leaving she told him,"daddy, you will always be in my heart". i haven't stopped crying today, just about anything will get me going. i'll feel sorry for myself today and then pick myself up tomorrow and move on. jaydn and i have to make the most of having daddy gone and living our life. everyone always says that the second deployment is easier, and while that may be true, the departure was much harder this time. robby and i have an amazing relationship and i love him more than anything in the world. letting go was very difficult. however, we can now start the countdown to having him home again and starting a new journey. thank you to everyone who loves and supports us...you will help us to get through this difficult time and we are truly blessed to have you in our lives. we have some amazing friends and family,both here and in idaho!!! i will keep everyone posted and post pictures as i get them!
