I skipped another week on the blog soooo heres a little on how week 12 went. We are doing much better with time management and figuring out how to balance everything. Still working on it but doing better. Thank you for your prayers. Last Mon the 22nd was our anniversary so last Sat Josh and I said goodnight to the boys and went out for a late dinner.....just the two of us! After dinner Josh drove me out to one of the many places we stopped at when he proposed and we danced outside of the car. (Something we did a lot when we were dating) :) It was wonderful. Thank you to my sister for watching the boys. We celebrated 7 years. :) Time sure does fly....another reminder that the next 3 months will too! Week 12 at the academy was very encouraging. The senior class graduated on Friday. It's a breath of fresh air to see that there is an end in sight. I can remember on orientation day seeing the senior class there and now knowing that they graduated and now Josh is in the same spot they were 3 months ago is very exciting. So now with the senior class gone and the next class not starting until next mon......this week Joshs class is the ONLY class at the academy. Not a fun week for the cadets I've heard. :( They call it "hell week". Good times. Please keep him in your prayers a little extra this week. His body was soooo sore going into this week and I can only imagine the pain he is and prob will continue to feel the rest of the week. All worth it in the end though right?! :) Thats what we keep telling ourselves. The great thing about him working out so much is his body has definitely changed the past 3 months! I cant even imagine how great he is going to look in 3 more months! hahaha you have to look at the positives right?! :)
Soooo week 13 here we go! I know its going to be a tough one for him but he is strong and he will do well. Wed is the official halfway point! YAY! Then it's all down hill from there. Another thing to pray for....Josh has discovered that he is cross dominant with his eye sight. So he is having a little bit of a rough start out at the range. What that means is he is right handed but his left eye is his dominate eye. And to make it even more complex when he shoots left handed his right eye wants to be dominant so he sees double. We ordered him prescription sunglasses which hopefully will help a little bit. I guess its pretty common and he just has to adjust. He already feels a little better about it all but still has a lot of work and practice to do. Just a little bump in the road...I'm sure we will come across many more in the next 3 months as the pace at the academy seems to never slow down. Our next goal to reach is Thanksgiving. He gets 4 days off! I cant wait! Crazy to think we are almost done with another month! God has been so good to us through all this. Time is going by and we are all hanging in there!
With Love,
Trina
