Saying Good bye

Ah.. this day has finally came. And though I thought I had prepared myself it couldn't have been harder. We brought Dean to the airport this morning so that he could head off to boot camp. I haven't stopped crying all day. This is already harder than I anticipated so I'm not looking forward to the next 8.5 weeks. We came home and Peyton took a nap while Zane went swimming in hopes that time would pass quickly. We ended up going out to Granny's tonight to help pass some time as well... which is actually when I got a call from Dean saying that he had made it to San Antonio and that it would be the last call I got from him till he arrived on base and did their arrival call to us. I got that call about 10:30pm and OUCH! did that hurt. I was completely scripted and I we weren't allowed to talk. Now the waiting game of one call a week for 15 min begins. I just pray this goes quickly for all of us.

Horrible News

Well I had planned on updating everything from last Sat through today tonight and well, I will be putting that off for a little while... I got some horribly bad news when Dean and I got home tonight. My Grandpa passed away this afternoon... I'm beyond a loss for words. I have spent so much of my life with him.. I love him so very much and loved seeing him with Zane... I couldn't wait for him to get to watch him grow. I will miss him so very very much. He always had the best stories and was very good at making things with his hands. He has made me so many things over the years that it's not even funny. I'm so very glad that he did get a chance to make Zane a stool and rocker. On Sunday Zane was 5 months and so we took him out for his 5 months pics. I wanted to base his pictures this month around the rocker that Grandpa had made him for Christmas... I just couldn't wait to send him these pictures! I wanted to be there to see the smile that I knew it would bring
