It's time for saying goodbye
A last bit of family togetherness for a while.I hate saying goodbye to people. It's one of the worst things about moving around a lot and military life.
Scott's class is over now and we're leaving Montgomery...although we're happy to move out of the hotel, we definitely aren't headed back to "normal life." Not for a while.Today the kids and I said goodbye to Scott. We will only see him for five days over the next 8 months. He will shortly be headed off to some training followed by deployment to the middle east. We only found out about this a few weeks ago, so it was a big shock. Such is the life of a military family. Goodbye Scott (and Daddy), WE LOVE YOU!!!
Here's a little goodbye song from the Muppets. Our goodbye was exactly like Kermit and Miss Piggy's. :)

I hate goodbyes too emily. That song made me cry. I love you emily and scott hopefully the time apart will go by fast :0).
Wow, I didn't know The Muppets could bring on the misty eyes like that! So sorry about the deployment, I agree with the last person, I hope it goes by really fast!
Does this mean you are headed back to Oki?
I didn't know Scott was being deployed, so sad! When does he leave for the middle east and when does he come back? Are you guys staying in the US or heading back to Okinawa? Sorry so many questions! Hope things go well for you - I know it'll be hard!
Such a sad song! But we all know it's OK because Kermit sells the show and gets everyone back together! We love you and you're in our prayers. Call me anytime.
aw emily, i loved the muppets song. i admire your family a lot and i hope the 8 months goes by quickly. kevin used to travel a lot so i know a little bit what it's like to be a single mom who's married. i'll be thinking about you a lot. and amen to what ruthie said. you know you can always count on kermit. :-D
Well you don't check in for a few weeks with your blog and the whole world changes.
Good luck!
(Dang, my sound card isn't working, I won't get to enjoy the song!)
