Today was his birthday. He received his birthday package a few days ago. I sent some silly string and water guns along with the usual fitness stuff so he could unwind and have a little fun with his guys. It was so good to see him smile and loosen up.  

The second I hit the accept button on face time, my heart starts pounding. I got two full hours today! Seeing his beautiful, cheesy smile on the other end does something to me. It reminds me why I'm on the other side of the world, waiting. I love him. 

A milso friend of mine is flying out here for New Years so we can toast to the near end of this sucky deployment. I don't know what I would do without her. 

We are officially 1/4 of the way through this deployment. Fuck yes.
