I feel more than just ecstatic that my husband will be coming home in a couple of weeks. We finally got his itinerary and as a matter of fact, he printed out a copy right after he received it. What a week it was for the both of us because it took five days before the agency was able to really forward the copy to my e-mail. Now, everything is good to go :) We're both counting down the days and wishing we can just fast forward the time and then make it stop from ticking once he gets here so he doesn't have to leave right away. Hay, I really can't wait!!

What bugs me sometimes is the funny truth that, the more I think about it, the more the wait seems longer. And the closer it gets, the more anxious I become.

On the other hand, I am pretty excited of his homecoming!! This is going to be my first time experience as a military wife welcoming a husband home who has been gone on a 6-month deployment. I'm so full of mixed emotions right now and I still haven't decided on what to do or what to give him on the day of his arrival. When he came here in April and I picked him up at the airport for the first time as my husband, I bought a bouquet of flowers (his favorite color) for him. This time, I want it to be something different. Not only that I'll be welcoming the love of my life home, I also will be welcoming a Soldier, a Hero, and he deserves something extra special. Now, the problem is, I'm left so clueless on what to do. I already came up with one, but I'm hoping I could do more for him. I know it doesn't have to be that all mushy and everything, I just want to make him feel that I'm joyful and grateful to God to have him back, very much loved, and that his wife is very, very proud of him :)

So, that's it. Countdown is almost over. It really is goodbye deployment and hello homecoming :)
