Patience is a Virtue

          As the day until Honey's return approaches, time seems to slow down.  I knew it would be like this,  the first month and last month of a deployment are always the worst.  I am constantly telling the children that "patience is a virtue", but it is one that I need to work on myself.   In the meantime, I am trying to immerse myself in hugging the children, giving them extra kisses and reading stories to them.   It is the best medicine for my impatience.
