Andrew was back in Ohio for a few weeks, and the kids found it very difficult to have him away. Especially knowing where he was...seeing family, old friends, and our old way of life. While he was away, the older three had their last day of school, and Tommy and Stanley said goodbye to some good friends. Tears flowed daily, and I was so happy to have my husband home again to help dry their tears.
Here are some glimpses into our month...
Last day with her great teacher Mrs. Utley
With Mrs.Piddington
Mrs. Brobrowski
The kids were all fortunate to have great teachers this year, all of these teachers have military husbands and will be here just a couple years, which is sad because I would love to have them again
Last day
Growing like weeds
Stanley had to say goodbye his last week of school to his good friend Gunnar who is moving to Boston. These two were almost inseperable, and Stanley has been missing him alot. Every morning they walked to school together, and countless hours were spent playing soccer, football, and hockey outside. Stanley joined the swim team this summer, and its helped him so much in keeping his mind off of it. But he is still sad. And my heart hurts for him
Typical
I also said goodbye to this special lady. Just writing this makes me choke up. She has meant more to me here at Yokota than I could ever express. Her friendship, encouragement, listening ear, beaming smile...the memories I will always treasure! Thanks for everything Heather!
All our kids at the terminal before she left
But June had its happy moments, the boys crossed over to the next level in boy scouts, Audrey celebrated her birthday at school, and we enjoyed happy days with friends. So thankful for what we have, and so thankful that our God is always with us...no matter our location!
