Today was not a fun day. Nick had to leave to go back to Iraq. It was kind of neat to see people tell us how beautiful our daughter was - becuase you know you have stared at babies before and thought how cute they were. This time it was our daughter. We have a daughter. People also stopped to thank Nick and that always brings a tear to my eye becuase you never hear about the support the troops actually get, but it is out there. When they call Nick's zone to board the plane he handed me Abby and kissed her and me a couple times before he walked to the gate. After they checked his ticket he turned back and waved...Abby knows something is different as she was very fussy and wanted to cry if I put her down today. She just wanted to be held and I don't think I was the one she wanted to be held by. We love you Daddy - Come home safe...

Molly,
I'm thinking of you, Abby and Nick.... There are so many peple out here admiring your family. Your strength is an inspiration to many and I admire Nick's devotion to our country. He's a hero for sure. Like the others said, if there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to ask. You'll all be in my thoughts and prayers.

Molly...I retrieved a Christmas "window" candle from the basement, put a bulb in it, put it in my dinning room window and it will stay there until Nick comes home. I have enjoyed looking at your pictures of your family. A beautiful family, indeed. You can pm me anytime. I have been through this, too, but it was Vietnam. Things do get better. Hugs Sally
