But that only means that Luis will be leaving soon after. I'm trying so hard not to think about it. I can't believe he's leaving AGAIN. It seems like he just got home. He will be leaving around Jan 10 give or take and I will be moving back to TX. We are packing up all our stuff, saying bye to this house, putting our stuff in storage and I'm headed home, probably for good. Because once Luis returns, it will take a few months, but he will be out of the Army and we will be living in Austin, which is wonderful , but having to wait this 15 months will be so hard.
I will be an emotional wreck, just FYI, so I'll need my friends and family to lend a shoulder to cry on. But most of all I need prayers, prayers for Luis and for his safety and pray that they shorten the deployment (which is possible from 15 to 12months)
Well until then I will enjoy my time with him, with our family together and I wont worry about it until it gets closer.
Thanks for listening! Love you all!

Thanks for your comment. So when you get back to Austin, we will have to hang out and when we are sad and lonely we can hang out and cry or to be more optimistic, we can help each other out of funks because our guys are thousands of miles away. I think I am seeing a girls night out in the near futire! ;-) I can only imagine how strong yours and Luis' relationship must be to continually endure these long separations. I will keep you guys in my prayers.
I know it's hard - but God knows how strong ya'lls love for one another is, and he knows that ya'll can handle it. Not to mention you have a huge family that is behind you 110%. You know we're always here for you. Try not to think about it too much, enjoy your Christmas together, and look forward to the two of you FINALLY being able to live in Austin. Good things have yet to come...hang in there sister.
