just plain sad...

I'm really trying to make the most of this last week with Jake before he leaves again but I'm just plain sad, mostly for him. I'd much rather be the one to stay that have to go and miss so much of the girls growing up. I'm secretly hoping that we find out we're having twins when we go in for our ultra sound tomorrow so that he gets to still go and accomplish his 'task'/goal (getting enough hours for Instructor Pilot school) but also gets to come home early!
Don't pray for twins though...please! Let's review...that'd be FOUR kids in 2 1/2 years. The only pro would be that all we want to give birth to is 4 so we'd be done. Other than that... Ok, I guess it'd be fun in more than one way but still. DO NOT pray for that!

I can't imagine what you must feel everytime Jake leaves. I know it's hard, like most of life. Telling you it's part of God's plan seems so insensitive, I know it never made me feel any better. I love you Holly!
