Bah Humbug.

No, this is not your typical Mothers Day post. This is more of a gripe, but I will wish the mamas out there in blogger world a good one. We've yet to celebrate a Mothers Day (or even my sons birthday) as a family. My husband was deployed for his birth and of course missed my first mothers day. He was still deployed when my son turned 1, and was still gone when mothers day came around. This year instead of deployment keeping him away, hes training in Ft Polk, LA. So yet again hes missed our sons birthday and mothers day. We tried to do something for his birthday before he left but it ended up being rushed and we couldnt do everything as planned because of the flooding. We'll have to do something when he gets back. But anyway he deploys around August again so unless we are "lucky" and he magically gets his leave time in the beginning of May 2011 then he will miss a THIRD year. Not to mention its almost certain that he'll miss our baby girls first birthday. I can take alot but sometimes I just get frustrated and need to bitch. Sorry to be a drag. Happy Mothers Day!

  1. I think your feelings are understandable, so don't feel bad for venting. I hope you and your son end up having a really fun day, all things considered

  2. I admire anyone who is a forces wife or girlfriend - I dont think I could cope with it myself. Best wishes to you and hope you have a great time and make up for it when he gets home :)

  3. You are not a drag. You have every right to be upset about that. That's a drag not you. I hope your mother's day wasn't too terrible.
