So because of my darn pregnancy hormones, I cannot stop crying. I'm extremely sad. My baby brother is leaving tomorrow for a school trip for 4 months. He goes to the Merchant Marine Academy and has to spend 4 straight months on a boat. He is most likely going to Africa- but isnt 100% sure since they keep changing his itinerary.
I guess there are a couple of reasons why I'm so upset. First and foremost- I'm really going to miss him. I'm so excited for him at the same time because this is such a wonderful opportunity! I guess the second reason why I'm so sad too is because neither of my brothers will be here when the baby is born. My other brother is in the Navy and is stationed in South Carolina.
My brother is stationed in Hawaii right now and he does not know when his next chance to come home will be - it is so sad to have them away for indefinite periods of time
Awwwww sweetie He'll be fine! As long as he is safe and is having a good time...that's a great opportunity to have though...very exciting! Hang in there sweetie!
Im sorry, I know that is hard. Try and think about how awesome it is going to be DC does get to meet their cool uncles! Its going to be such a special and emotional moment... the anticipation of that will help you smile!!! On a side note, you must be so proud of your brothers
Thanks everyone for the hugs. DH and I had dinner last night at my parents to say goodbye to my brother. We had alot of fun- there were alot of laughs. Leaving my parents house was sad- but I did not cry until I got into the car. My bro kept patting my belly. Its weird to think that the next time I see him, I'll have my baby!
