SHE ARRIVED AT RAY BARRACKS AT 2:00 A.M.

She looked great yet smelled a little like an Army tent.

We made it home about 2:55. She showered, I prepared a LATE dinner...

She looks wonderful..(.she smells beautiful)...her smile is even bigger than I remember it (if that is even possible) and the conversation is better than ever.

It's 5:00 A.M now. I'm too stoked to sleep. However, she is sleeping gorgeously as I expect she will for the better part of the next 12 hours.

And somehow...I think she is even sweeter than when she left.

Amazing.

I over-achieved to an absolutely serious degree.

Praises to Him who makes such things possible.
