He's home for the holidays. I picked him up on Sunday, and I have to drop him off at the airport on the fourth around three-ish. He's excited to be back home, and I'm excited to have him home.
We've also decided on the house/living situation. I will stay in my big beautiful country house while he finishes training, ait, and air assault school. This will take us until about late August, early September next year. I'm thinking that this will be a permanent thing. Me in this house, and him on post wherever in the world. And at first I thought, "That's crazy. We can't live separate lives, in separate cities, in separate houses."
But now?
Now, I'm relieved. I'm relieved that the decision has been made. And that he's okay with it, and I'm okay with it. I mean, I want to raise babies in this house, and grow old in this house. And turn this beautiful, turn of the century, old house into my dream home. And he told me when he bought us this house he was thinking about baby rooms as well.
We were on the same page the whole time. If I have to move a year from now, or three, or ten, or fifty; it'll be okay. But, for right now I'm relieved that we've gotten to the same page.
