I don't do well with separation from Caleb. It's kind of crazy how unwell I handle it considering he's been deployed for a longer period of time then we've been together since we've been married. I was going through my box of things from Caleb last night (yes I keep every single thing he gives me, all letters, cards that come on flowers, candy that i'm pretty sure he intended for me to eat, dried flowers, and even receipts of fun dates we had) And I stumbled across this cutie
Caleb gave me this little bear at the very beginning...which is now almost five year ago! I'm so thankful I discovered the little guy. He now sleeps on Caleb's pillow and this morning when I woke up he somehow ended up right next to me under the covers. He must be a crazy sleeper like Caleb is :)
I love finding little things like this that put a little brightness in our days of separation.
Does anyone else have cute little things from the beginnings of dating? Or fun little rituals while loved ones are away?

I don't envy you at all! Doug was gone last night and I HATE being alone...especially at night! I think its cute that you have all that stuff and how fun it is to go through it all! I have the flowers from the basket that Doug bought me when I had to come home from the hospital without Madalyn. They are plants and they are so big now...its fun to think back of when they were tiny and what we were going through and how things are now! If you ever need anything....don't be afraid to call!
