Very bad day today
I got a horrible phone call early this morning from someone I used to work with. A friend of mine, who was stationed in Iraq, was killed yesterday in her sleep when her trailer was hit. SGT Trista Moretti was an amazing person. She had an impact on so many lives in so many places. It's going to be tough for everyone (like me) who can't make it to Jersey to say goodbye. I've been crying off and on all damn day. It seems so unfair. I hate this war and don't agree with it, but I don't think she died in vain. She died for everyone else out there. They fight for each other, not a cause, not their government. That's what I miss about the Army. I miss my comrades. Trista was hilarious and beautiful and had this great Jersey accent. We used to play word games and gossip and eat lunch together every day. We would laugh all day long while we "worked" haha. I remember when she first got to the unit I told everyone some bitchy chick with an accent was in the...

You have really been strong through all of this and have been an inpiration to us all.I think twice about ever complaining because taking care of two boys by yourself is so much more work!
You will all be a family again though.You have been looking forward to this for so long.I'm sure it will be wonderful to be together again & difficult at the same time since you've been apart so long but once you all get settled & into your new routine you will be so relieved!I am so happy for you and hope you have no trouble selling your house & making the long drive to Georgia.I've missed your posts but know you are so busy.
By the way all of those pictures are great and really show how close you all are.
oh and by the way, your one of the real ones. ;)
