later in the day:
It is the evening, now. We spent a nutty day traveling from gate to gate all over the airport. Neither my nephew nor I have a cell phone! Thankfully, courtesy phones and the USO helped us connect! Our teens and I spent most of his layover keeping him company. What a treat. I told him how proud I was of him and to stay as safe as he could. We hope and pray for his safe return in November!

Our philosophy, even though our children are all grown now, is to allow for time and space in each day to be present for those memorable moments; the ones both on and off the calendar.

Back to Iraq
My nephew begins his journey back to Iraq today, after R & R. We will go spend the afternoon with him at the airport today on his layover, taking him lunch, extra snacks, homemade cookies and the like.
