far far away

That's where Brent is; far, far away.  It feels so weird.  And scary.  Just because he's SO far away.

Today he flew from Washington to Virginia to New Hampshire.  I'm not sure what's after that because right before his flight left for New Hampshire even he didn't know what was next.   We're expecting the rest of his journey to consist of stops in Germany, Kuwait and Iraq before ending at Kandahar.

Thanks Meggan! You know, I think that you have it harder than I do. I said to Brent last week, "I'm glad that you're going and getting it over with, rather than leaving for weeks at a time over and over again." I think that it would be so hard to always have him leaving, ESPECIALLY with four! I don't know how you do it. And by the way, you really DID make me feel better - thank you!
