Offically Offical

Yep, it is official and actually have been official for a while, I just didn't really want to talk about it. D is leaving for Qatar next week. Well actually he goes to training first then off to Qatar after that. We are still not sure for how long, but we do know it is "no more than 400 days." Life has been one big stress ball trying to get prepared, mentally and physically. We are telling O'lena nightly and she seems to get it, well as much as she can. She is handling it much better than me :( I still kind of don't want to talk about it. The fun part is, we all get to learn about a new county and me and O'lena will get some good quality time. Well, I have better be getting back to my paper, which is due at the exact same time as he is leaving, of-course, but I have included the video of O'lena seeing Derick when he came home last week. It was really cute. He hid in the car for her to find him. The conversation went some thing like
Me: olena there is a surprise in the car for you
O: a pretty crown?
Me: no not a pretty crown
O: a pretty ring?!
Me: nope not a pretty ring.
Opens car door to find her daddy in her seat
O: it's my daddy!! He is here!!He is not a soldier!!!
