So the kids came home today saying their teachers said they need to keep the windows and the doors locked because of bin laden and watch for anything "weird" and turn it in. So they checked the windows and doors right then and there. Then we went to get the brakes fixed and the t.v. at goodyear was on.....they had a million questions about chemical warfare and wmd's and all kinds of other stuff. So i suffered through the flu, and goodyear breaking the news to me that my car would cost twice the estimate to try and explain as best i could. I gotta tell you it was kind of tough. I feel like the school went about it all the wrong way, i realize they are military children and they are expected to be more "aware" and more "insightful" of worldly ways. But did they really have to say keep the windows and doors locked at all times? Because frankly if they come to our house we are dead! No window or door will stop that, especially not in custer village lol i'm pretty sure even I could kick these doors in! So At ten Jonah wakes back up and grogglily recruits me to help check the windows and doors again. GRRR Fort Benning schools, i can't help but think there was a better way to go about this.

Ding dong the witch is dead.....

And another one will take his place. While every part of me is glad Bin Laden is now dead, and so much of me knows he deserved worse than death. The vengeful part of me thinks why kill him why not capture him and kill his family and wipe out his nation? Not very becoming of me i realize! But that's hooah for ya! Other parts of me has to think, what does this mean? What does this mean for our boys? While we all rejoice our boys are over there facing the unknown, we have no idea what is going to happen. While some may rejoice, some may revolt. As an Army wife do you ever feel so damn selfish for repeatedly thanking God that it isn't YOUR husband over there? Because i do sometimes, right now is one of those times. One of my friends status' reads "we are fighting a movement not just a man." Those are just the words i was looking for, once it hit me his death was true. We just made a big step, but now i fear that step is going to make things worse before it makes things better. I'll be working the Lazarus tomorrow and i will attend the noon mass. When i do, to the friends that are over there, to the friends who are going and to the friends who are here at home waiting on their loved ones. You best believe i will be on my knees tomorrow at noon rosary in hand praying for you. And it will be my voice that says "for our guys n gals deployed and deploying, for the extra strength to deal with the aftermath. And for their loved ones left here at home. Lord hear our prayer."
