Wow! Has it really been about a month since our last post? Where has the time gone? In the past month Craig and I have been busy plugging away at school work. Yes, that is right, we are both enrolled in college and working towards our bachelor degrees! Earning our degrees has been something we both have thought about for years but never sat down to actually do. Not that now is the "perfect" time but we both realize there is never a "perfect" time for anything. So here we are working on assignments after the kids fall asleep for the night. Pretty exciting, huh? Currently we are both enrolled in one class and have another one starting early July. And lucky for us we both already have some college credits, and the college we are attending, American Military University, offers 8 or 16 week courses, which should help us earn our degrees a bit faster than usual.
Craig leaves again this Sunday. That time is coming up way too quickly! I am not ready to have him leave again. I know I can handle the kids, college assignments, errands, and house-hold chores on my own - over the last year I have had plenty of practice (well, except the college course work). Although I know I can do it, I don't want to! I want him home to enjoy the kids, I want his company, and would love his help. I want to have us all here, together, to enjoy our last year on island and experience as much as possible. BUT it is what it is, and I do appreciate all his hard work and sacrifices! I know it is harder on him being away than it is on me being home.
Yes, time is going by quickly. We will try to maintain our blog page a bit better - and get some more pictures posted. We hope everyone is doing well!
