BUT...happy to report that nothing new has happened haha. Besides the fact that YOUR son has somehow managed to get his first black eye. I would put pics up tonight but it's late and I need sleep, planning on putting some up tomorrow of the ones I took today and then the ones I will take tomorrow to compare...
He is so tough! Ina said he didn't even cry, and his little face is so red and purple and swollen...I am embarrassed to take him out in public cause I am afraid people are going to think I beat him! haha
Today I got your second package ready and it is going out tomorrow...
Rachel came over and had dinner with us tonight and put Tman in bed while I went to the store, it was a nice little break. Although, I am becoming even more attached to that little kid. Knowing someone else was putting him in bed almost made me sick! And when Ina called me at work today to tell me about him falling, I almost left work cause I just needed to hug him and hold him and see for myself that he was ok...even though when she called I heard him laughing in the background. I feel so so sorry for my future daughter-in-law...
I had to show Trevan your pic on my phone today for 3495734987 times again, and he laughed and kissed it and said hi. He loves his daddy!!!
AND...Sally, you know, my best friend from high school that now lives in California, sent me this email today, and it was entitled "Message To Trevan":
We have only met once, but I have some wisdom I would like to share with you. I knew your mom long before you were even thought of and I think this info will help you through the next few months.
So, I know you are sad because Daddy is gone. I also know that mommy has assured you that he Loves you more than anything and he will be home as soon as possible. Mommy is going to be there for you non-stop and she is going to be as strong as possible. She will be putting on a very strong face, but she will have her sad moments too. Give her a hug and a kiss as often as possible. On occasion cuddle up to her for no reason other than you love her. Sleep for 10 hours one day, so Mommy has alone time. Smile for your Mom, cause when you smile she can see your Daddy through you. It's going to be rough on everyone, but i know that you and Mom combined will be able to get through it. You will both have rough days, but i know you can do it. Also try to keep the crying for Daddy to a minimum, cause when you cry Mommy will cry too and then who's going to get you tissues if you are both crying together. It will also help if you do lots of funny things that you can both laugh at. and last don't grow up to fast because I know both Mommy and Daddy will be sad if Daddy misses too much.
I promise that Mommy will show you all sorts of Love, Courage, & Joy while you guys wait for your Daddy to come home. Plus you gets all kinds of special mommy bonding time.
Words of Wisdom & Caring from a distant friend

I LOVE YOU...stay strong honey!
