Tonight we said our goodbyes to Brent at the bus depot. Ireland was already asleep and Brigitta was working her way there with a few tired wails now and again. As I pulled out of my parking spot Liesel spoke up from the backseat.
"Mom? I'm really sad because I miss Daddy." And she burst into tears. She cried like I have never heard her cry before.
And I sobbed too.

I totally understand. We didn't see Ray for 3 months at a time when he was on the submarine. We didn't have communication for that amount of time. We did that for about 4 years. He was home 3 months gone 3 months, etc. It's hard on little ones and their wives too. You'll be in my prayers.
This is Aunt Janet....
