just sitting and waiting and

giddy as all get out! so, i got the call this morning from aaron! he had finally made it home, to at least minneapolis! and now, as i'm typing this, he's en route home! well, to in processing and then home!

i'm beside myself! i've been waiting for the butterflies and giddines to really set in. and i'm glad to report, they are in full force!

everything is ready! house cleaned, towels and sheets washed and fluffed, homecoming sign and ribbons hung, car cleaned, favorite carrot cake baked and cooling, homecoming outfit on, cayman napping, and now just waiting! i even have our hokie build-a-bear and our cards for aaron in the car already along with our little american flags. i'm seriously ready!

i can't thank all of you enough for all your support and prayers! keep them going for our loved ones that are still over there serving us and protecting us and building a better future. and for those of you still counting weeks, your time will come too! remember, as aaron always reminded me, it's only a few months out of a lifetime!

ps, i love you and i'm so glad you're finally home!
