Skyping My Man/10 Months Down :)

It has been one of the best weekends ever (even though I locked my keys in my car and hurt my back).  My wonderful man has been out for 10 months now which I think is a lot of progress!! I mean that is double digits down!!!  Only 14 months left and his year mark is right around the corner…I have heard the second year goes much faster…lets hope so ;) 

Then I got to Skype him!! It is the weirdest thing because a huge part of me was so excited and couldn’t wait to talk to them and then the other part of me remembered how it was hard to say see ya later again when we Skyped at Christmas!! I love this boy more than words can describe and it felt so good to see him and hear how good he is doing in something other than e-mails and letters :)  He got to Skype his whole family and they were sweet enough to let me talk to him for a few minutes alone!

He gave me the biggest boost to keep going for these next few months until I can Skype him again!  He has only changed in the best ways possible and is the same Jakers I love so much!! I miss him like crazy but I am so grateful that I love someone enough to miss like this and that this journey is so hard because it means that I am one incredibly lucky girl!
