Good lord, she's a beautiful baby! I'm sure Brian can't wait to get home and see her. Will he get to stay home then o rwill he have to go back to Iraq? I'm sure he feels like he's missing out on so much.
Thank you for thinking she is a beautiful baby - we think so too but we (I) am slightly prejudiced. Brian's year in Iraq is up in April so when he comes home it should be for good. However, his unit is suppose to rotate back in a year (hopefully, not sooner) but he gets out in March so with any luck he will not be going the next time. Brian spent the first year of their marriage in Korea (considered hostile so Christy could not go) and was home for 9 months and then went to Iraq last April. He was home for mid tour in late Dec./early Jan which just happened to be when Jasmine decided to make her appearance. And yes he does feel like he is missing out but Christy keeps him updated with emails an pictures through e-mails. Thank God for digital cameras and the internet!
