Kiddos are sick... =(

Sooooo...*sighs*...long night last night and my poor babies, DD and youngest DS, has diarrhea and vomitting. It's past midday when I wrote this: they havn't managed to hold anything down (to be expected). Called our Dr and I picked up their meds with no *accidents* in my car. I did, however, gave them each a ziplock bag and a handtowel: just in case they throw up again. Loads of laundry from last nights ordeal needed to be done: mink blankets, 2 bedsheets and some pillowcases. Yeaps, they got my bed. But it's ok. All I want is them both get better. It's breaking my heart they're miserably sick. =(

Hopefully, tomorrow they'll get better. Prayers.....

=( =( and just plain tired me.... =( =( I wish my DH is home right now but that's not a possibility. =( =(

No crafting....out of the question with chores to do....

Prayer

So, DH left last night for his 7 months deployment. I don't know what I'm feeling...lost, sad etc etc etc...who knows. BUT, I think this parting was much better than the '07 deployment. We, DH & I, did much better.

Children are doing exceptional well. DD Bri and DS Peyton did asked/said "Where's Daddy" "I miss my Daddy"...=(

Not much going on today...trying to keep my mind busy...it's crazy *in* there...sighsss...

I leave with this prayer. My good friend/adopted-stepmom (lol) Pat gave this when DH was deployed in '07.

Dear Lord,

Give me the greatness of heart to see
the difference between duty
and his love for me & our children.

Give me a task to do each day,
to fill the time when he is away.

When he is in a foreign land,
keep him safe in your loving hand.

And, when duty is in the field,
please protect him and be his shield.

And Lord, when deployment is so long,
please stay with me and keep me strong.

GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!!

As I worrying myself ever since I know where he's going, DH just informed/called me that he's not going to the initial country that he was supposed to go. Yay!! Not that the new destination is much safe but it's much better than the initial one....phewwww...I'm relieved.... but still sad...Who says separation is easy...pfffft!...
