Paul and I were planning on celebrating his R&R the first 2 weeks of January. We were planning on spending the first week at home relaxing, going out to dinner and hanging out with family. The second week we were planning on staying in Breckenridge at my parent's timeshare and going skiing/snow boarding. I had it all planned out...
On Saturday morning, Paul called me and told me he had some news. He started the conversation by telling me he is no longer coming home for R&R in January. Of course, I got sad and upset. Then he says, "Because they are sending ME HOME! FOR GOOOOOOOOD!!!!!" I didn't believe him at first, but it is true.
They are trying to reduce the numbers in Afghanistan so they chose 80 guys to send home early and Paul was one that was chosen!!!! What an amazing gift from God! He is supposed to be home in January and not EVER have to go back!
Please continue to keep Paul and his men in your prayers for those who prepare to come home and for those that have to stay. I will keep you updated. Here is a picture of what is to come in a few weeks...
I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS MOMENT TO COME!!!!
