I just can't believe how quickly time goes by when you are happy in your place in life. Mike returned a little over two months ago from his first stint at OCS. When he returned, we knew we would have over three months before he had to report back to Camp Robinson in Little Rock. Now, here we are and I realized May 10 isn't really that far away. For most of the time he's been back, he has been working at my school as an aide for a student with behavior issues. We found out today, that could be ending this week. Not that that is a bad thing! This job has been super challenging, but it means that as our time together comes to an end, we won't be seeing each other as much. How can time go by so quickly? We have been super busy and even had a fabulous vacation. I know we are going to enjoy these next few weeks, and especially the two weekends we have left (He has drill the other two weekends before reporting). I am so thankful for this time we have had together. God gave us this time, and it definitely wasn't wasted. Our bond has only strengthened. I pray that the time apart goes as quickly as our time together has. I also pray that God gives Mike the strength, courage, and peaceful feeling he needs to make it through OCS this time.
I'm glad you're using your energy to enjoy today instead of dreading tomorrow.
