TODAY is THE Day!

It has been fourteen (YES, FOURTEEN!) long months without my husband home and today we get to go pick him up! I get all teary-eyed when I think about how excited Stephen is going to be to see his daddy! The poor kid has been calling his friends daddies daddy, and it breaks my heart everytime I have to correct him with something like, "No, that's Alison's daddy."

Our home is relatively clean and today I am not stressing over a darn thing. If he comes home to a less than clean patio (which he will be coming home to) we're still all in one piece so I just don't give a hoot. Father's Day is a day late here in the Moody Chiperno household, and I cannot wait to kick off the festivities!

My friends Clare and Heather are nice enough to help me out later. Clare is staying home with her two kiddos so Heather can come along to the redelployment ceremony to take some pictures, so I will post some later. Keep an eye out!
