countdowns

Tony and I have had a relationship based on countdowns.  As hard as it is being away from each other, I love that I will have an everlasting appreciation for being under the same roof again someday.  And that day being very soon.

22 more days until I see him
75 more days until the wedding
95 more days until he checks in at Camp Hansen in Okinawa
112 more days until I get to Japan (give or take a few days)

These all seem do-able.  Tony told me that when they were deployed, the countdown of returning home was based on how many more haircuts they had left.  Since this is a 1x/week appointment, "5 more haircuts" sounded better than "5 weeks"

so in Tony's word:

next time we see eachother = 3 more haircuts (AWESOME)
wedding = 10 more haircuts
Camp Hansen = 13 haircuts
Tara in Japan = 16 haircuts

* I think I should start getting my haircut once a week.


LOVE THIS GUY!

    I remember counting down based on how many more "sleeps" it was...so now I do that with my kiddos too! Very soon you guys will be together! Can't wait for you to have some routine to your life:)

    Nothing pleases a parent more than to see her kiddos happy! These countdown events are pretty special and will be enjoyed by all!

    Cheers to a great summer!

    P.S. No haircuts - remember you're "growing it out" for the wedding:)
