the day has actually come...she's actually going. i mean, she's stationed in japan and that's sad enough. but now, she's been deployed. i'm worried and i'm scared. who wouldn't be? i'm still in favor of war, that's not going to change. just the fact that it's actually happened is a lil hard to take in right now. i can't focus on my work and i'm already behind on stuff. *sigh*
Dear Lord,
Please be with Christina and all of her crew. Give her courage, strength, and comfort. Protect her, bring her home soon. Amen

Dear Christina-Jeh-Jeh,
I'm so proud of you. it's hard to imagine that you're really so far away fighting for our country. it didn't scare me too badly when you were being stationed in japan, partly because i knew that you were still around, you wouldn't hafta be "fighting" anywhere. now that you have actually been deployed, it's a little unreal. it's hard to imagine that you're actually going, huh? right now, i just wish we could go back in time and freeze it. when we used to put on funny skits for everyone, dance to michael jackson, and ride in auntie tina's convertable standing up...we've been thru alot, huh? you're in my thots, prayers, and dreams. "for i know the plans i have for you says the Lord..." it does seem scary, but then, when i read that, i'm comforted. i know that God holds you close to his heart too...cuz you are his child and he luvs you so much. i know you're scared, i'm scared, we're all scared, but i'm trusting God and i have faith that whatever happens, we'll all be blessed. i luv you girlfriend, come home soon...*MUAH* luv, ~*MICH*~
