Super Bowl Sunday

Today is a day that people will be going nuts. I mean come on it's super bowl sunday. This means that people will be heading out to family and friends houses to enjoy one of American's favorite past time of stuffing their faces, drinking beer and yelling at there family's TV. I'm not exactly knocking this don't get me wrong. I throughly enjoy watching my Husband's family get all rilled up. For example if the Colts are playing my Mother-in-law becomes a chain smoker and can't sit until the game is over, she gets so worked up.

Anyway this makes me think back to last year's superbowl. I can't believe it has been a year already. This time last year Michael and I where discussing how things were going to go when we got to his family's house. You see we broke the news that he was getting deployed before the start of the game. It went as expected. I feel bad in a way because I prayed and asked God that he would allow the Colts to win the super bowl so that things would lighten up. It may not have been the bes time to tell the family that he was going to war, but it was bes for us to go and get it out of the way since everyone was there and we wouldn't have to drive all over the place. It makes me sad today and I miss Micahel even more today. There is always something to make me think about him. Some days are just harder than others. But I've been dealing rather well. Thank the Lord there is days ahead than more. He'll be home soon, praise GOD!

I have been spending alot of time on youtube here lately. I have found tons of good dedication videos for our troops. Some are very sad and I can not help but cry and think of Michael and his buddies whenever I see them. But it's good that they are out there. Hopefully it will help people think about what things are like in their lives and their families lives. So few care. There is a really good video with my favorite song, "Praise you in this storm," by casting crowns. It's from jkstar09 . I love this song and has such meaning to me about what I am going threw with Michael being gone. It gives me strength to go on. The Lord is my Rock, and my shield, for I will praise him all the days of my life!
