My brother, Chris, is officially being deployed today, on a ship to...he doesn't know where.

I don't like not knowing where my brother is.
I don't like my brother being in harm's way.
I like my brother nice and safe in San Diego with his sweet wife, Cindy.

I do not like being awake at 4:30 in the morning, crying.
Stupid Marines, and Afghanistan, and Iraq, and Somalian pirates.
How is my brother supposed to know when his first niece is born?

I am not mature or patriotic at 4:30 (now 4:46) in the morning. I will get there. But I'm not there now.


I love this guy. Even when he grows stupid mustaches (please see the first picture). When he gets back he will get to hold Lily and I will make his favorite enchilada casserole. Please pray for my brother. He is special to me.

Ughhh...not a good day for me to read this! I'm having an emotional day as well (and it's not 4:30)! He is most certainly in our prayers.
Love you cousin....call me whenever you feel like you need someone to talk to...I have faith that my mama will watch over him...LOVE YOU...
I am so thankful for Heroes like your brother. Thanks for sharing :)
