I love this photo that was taken when my son and his wife were here in July....they were able to come home for my Dads funeral.
I was so happy to see them even though the circumstances were not happy.
I was so happy to see them even though the circumstances were not happy.
However, while he was here for a couple of weeks.....
the Marines called to tell him that he had orders to deploy to Afghanistan........so they rushed back to his base in California to prepare for deployment.....such as sending his pregnant wife across the country to live with her mom, etc, etc.
Jacob will miss the birth of his first born child but he does have Skype.
I know this is real tough for my son.....but now I can realize even more how the families of our deployed military are affected also......tremendously!

This is a wonderful picture of young love expecting a new life, but tempered with such sadness!! I hope he will be fine and able to see the new baby in person soon!
Prayers for you son. That has to be difficult for his wife. Bless them both.
Hugs to you all. My heart goes out to you.
Missing the birth of your child. Just the thought makes me so sad.
What a beautiful photo! I am thankful for young men like your son willing to serve this country. Praying for his safe travel and safe return.
Wonderful picture of a lovely couple. Military deployment can be very painful for the family. Best Wishes Ram
My heart is so tendered for you and his wife and the rest of the family. My nephew (in law... married to my niece) got his next orders, and he'll be heading to Afghanistan soon too. I'm truthfully in awe of those who marry or raise a soldier. It's a sacrifice the whole family makes.
Kim, I have a nephew who will be deploying soon. Will keeping your son/family in my prayers.
