I've said it to you privately Judy, but I'll say it again here. Dean is a hero for serving this country during wartime, just like every soldier is but there's heroes like you too hon. Back home, keeping life moving along and stable for the kids, doing what must be done even when it's a lonely, tough time. Big hugs my friend, I'm glad Dean is as safe as can be in that situation and I know you are going to be okay. Give your kids a hug and tell them from me they have a hell of a mom!
A huge DITTO what Jo said.....
I continue to keep Dean and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
The only difference between tattooed people and non-tattooed people is....
....Tattooed people don't care if you're not tattooed.
