On Sunday Josh and I passed our one month mark of this deployment. Like most things in life, time seems to go by slow and fast simultaneously. The first two weeks went by painfully slow - it felt like we'd been apart much longer than two weeks. The phones have been cutting out on Josh's … Continue reading One Month Down
