We are grateful that he is serves our country. Plus he is such a good example to all the people around him and the people he is working with are lucky people to be working with him.

I was just away from my husband for just over 3 months this summer due to military obligations, and although he wasn't gone for 9 months or in Afghanistan, the kids and I survived! You can do it! Keep yourself busy and let others help you when they offer! Even if they don't offer, ask for help when you need it! One of the greatest things you can do in life is serve your country and Harrison (and you also for sacrificing your husband for 9 months) is doing just that! Keep your head up momma! You guys are setting a great example for your children and they will learn that serving their country is important. Try to remember it's only temporary! Rock this girl! You got it!Austin and Kristen Bennionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16225786613544027239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6848045446871088182.post-16256671849679733292012-10-15T14:38:21.846-07:002012-10-15T14:38:21.846-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Austin and Kristen Bennionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16225786613544027239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6848045446871088182.post-38150664115099060612012-10-15T14:26:47.131-07:002012-10-15T14:26:47.131-07:00Congrats on getting this out!

Josten is leaving next October (I'm still in the "It's a far way off" phase), and though I will miss him and worry about him being infantry, I am so happy for his opportunity to serve. I know you will do great, and just think that it's only 3 ranger schools in length!! You've already done one of the hardest things, giving birth without your husband. You are strong, and will be able to do this!!The Cornett Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05300155356494808142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6848045446871088182.post-2094916170690842012-10-15T05:01:22.292-07:002012-10-15T05:01:22.292-07:00Hang in there!
