Another Sad Deployed Soldier/Dad

[SoldierDad]

AS,

Detachment is for YOU-not her. When you detach, you won't worry about what she "thinks", or if "it" is working. Lovingly detach AS. Let her go.

When you get off the plane, the first thing you do is grab those kids of yours and squeeze them, and tell THEM you love and miss them. Shower them with your love. Spend as much time with them as you possibly can.

Your focus for those 2 weeks, is on those kids and yourself.

Once you get home - DO NOT fall into any traps. This is crucial to all of your efforts.

You act AS IF, that's how you act. You GAL. You Detach.

You LIVE.

Have a safe flight, and a great R & R with those kiddos!!
