Sacrifices

I feel like I have missed so much of the lives and events of those I love because I am in the military. This is one of the biggest sacrifices that I have endured. I miss Tom and Kelsey and want them to know I love them. I want to thank my wife and kids for all of the sacrifices they have to endure to support me. I know they miss being near family and attending family functions, feeling unsettled and not knowing where they will live in a few years and the many other sacrifices they make regularly. My hat is also off to all of the military families that sacrifice the same and more!

I want to apologize to my family and friends for not staying in touch. I get into my own little world and don't put forth the effort to call or write. I know it's not New Years but I am renewing my resolution to stay in touch better. I love you all and hope you will forgive me.
