Back Again

Well back in Iraq. Leave was awesome. When Haley asked me what I wanted to do I told her, "I want to go to church, and stay at home with family. As Haley so eloquently put it "2 weeks and 2 days in heaven". You know the old saying is true, "you don't know what you have until you don't have it any more". It was great being with my wonderful family even for a short while. It just makes me happy to know I'll get to see them again soon. Just want to say thanks for everybody that has helped take care of Haley and Bennett while in my absence. I know a lot of people have been worried about Haley since I left and how she is dealing with everything but let me tell you she is doing amazing. She takes care and maintains the house, pays all the bills, organizes play group with friends, family home evening groups, and not to mention doing a fabulous job raising our little boy. We have received a lot of compliments on how well behaved our little man is and its all Haley! I just earn the money and she does it all. She is quite amazing. I remember reading a story about Pres. Hinckley and Sis. Hinckley and how he always let her soar and was her greatest supporter. I have always tried to do the same for Haley, and believe me she does soar. They are the true hero's in all this.
