& so it begins...

today is the first of many ... Zack is on 2nd shift and I'm a "single mom" to Sophia. I'm REALLY excited for him to start this shift because he'll see some more action, but sad because Sophia & I are going to miss Daddy a lot when it's time for a walk, dinner time, bath time & snuggles at bed time. BUT, thank our lucky stars that every 4 days we get DADDY TIME as he'll have is two days off.

The weekends will be great because even though he'll leave at 3 for work, we'll at least get him all morning and for lunch!! All I know is that I'm so grateful to be married to a man who's committing his life to ensure others are safe - what a good hubster! :-)
