New Friends

While in kindergarten, Logan found his first ever "best friend" named Domenic. After meeting with his mom, Lisa, and brother Kalen, we all became really great friends and enjoyed each others company on a regular basis. Domenic's dad is military and was gone alot. I took advantage of giving Lisa a much needed break from time to time by taking all four boys out for "day outtings." We always had a blast, no matter where we went, and there was NEVER a dull moment! They were always all very well behaved, even though sometimes I go the crazy eye look from people because they were all so close in age and in most ways could pass for all brothers...lol. Jaocb was 7, Logan and Domenic 5, and Kalen was 4. Yes, a handful, but tons of fun! We spent lots of time together and the boys really enjoyed each others company. Early 2010, we found out that Lisa was expecting and hoped for a little girl. I was lucky enough to go with her for her gender ultrasound (Joe was away at school), and we found out she was adding a baby girl to the family! Everyone was super excited! I was really looking forward to having a little girl around to spoil and of course take a million pictures of! Unfortunately, they soon got the news that shortly after school was out, and with Joe's graduation from Special Forces, they would be restationed to Colorado. They have been gone for several months now, and Domenic and Kalen now have a beautiful baby sister named Sophia. Jacob and Logan miss them terribly and talk about them quite often. They are hoping that one day, maybe the military will bring them back to Ft. Bragg! It is tough seeing my boys go thru somewhat of a seperation from their friends, but I guess it is life and it goes on. Luckily with technology today, they have a chance to see pictures of them and can communicate pretty instantly. Logan was talking just the other day that he wanted to send his best friend Domenic a picture that he had drawn. Kinda makes me smile.
