Bitter Cold and Many Tears

Just an update that Jake took off tonight for Iraq.  We had salt streaks stuck to our faces after crying in the bitter cold.  Thank you all for your sweet encouragements and blessed prayers for us.  May we glorify God with tears of joy and sorrow, not bitterness, towards His perfect, Sovereign plan for our family these next few months!  I'll post again once Jake's landed safely.  I may not have any word until Wednesdayish.

'How do I comment?' is what I am asking myself because I don't know the feeling of having someone leave like that. You are all in my thoughts and prayers that you may be at peace during your time away from each other.
