Farewell to Dadio!

It has been a crazy couple of weeks. First of all I went to Denver almost 2 weeks ago and helped my dad drive back to Utah. It was fun going on a road trip and a last hoorah with my dad. Then this past week has been spent babysitting my little brother and sister while my parents are in Georgia. My dad has a final school he has to go to there and my mom went with him for their last goodbye. This Thursday my dad is shipping off to Iraq. Its crazy to think that he is going over there...again. Its been hard to see him leave, and people ask my mom and my family all the time how we do it so many times. In the past seven years my dad has been to Iraq and Afghanistan several times..coming home for short periods of time. It will sound weird, but we have almost gotten used to it. There is of course still that fear of the unknown, but we have seen time and time again that our Heavenly Father is looking over him and protecting him. I love my dad so much. He is such a wonderful example to me. I just wanted to put a little post about my dad and my hero. Hopefully the next 6 months will fly by so we can see him again!
