This post is being written as part of the Ketchup With Us LinkUp which is prompt based. Today’s prompt is to write about a significant First Day in your life in 57 words or less (get it the Heinz 57 Ketchup ..LOL I like it). The LinkUp is hosted by According to Mags and Old Dog New Tits and runs on the 1st and 15th of every month.
So here goes…
7 1/2 months pregnant 15 1/2 hours of flight. Exhausted. 18 month old in a stroller and 10 year old son in tow. Searching. Where was he? Apart for too long. Where was he? Fight the tears. Called his phone. He’s on his way. I see him. My Soldier. My husband friend and love. I can do this. Day 1. Aloha Army Wife Life.

Hi, Mrs. Tee. Welcome to Ketchup. We love bringing in new people. So this is another FIRST for you.
Your story is truly heartwarming. I can't IMAGINE doing all of that on my own. Big props to you, mama. Please give me your husband's cell so I can text him a reminder to send you flowers each week. 🙂
Thanks for playing Ketchup. See you on the 1st!
Thank you so much! I came upon the LinkUp by chance but I'm so glad I did…it was really fun and challenging. It was rough…I actually did the same thing a 2 years later after a deployment when we moved back to Hawaii and I was preggers with my 4th baby..LOL Those flights are killer! ;D see you on the 1st!
I love this! It seriously made me cry.
Thank you so much…that day is in my memory like it was yesterday.
This is so sweet. I have tears in my eyes. I'm so glad you guys were reunited. In Hawaii, too? Woohoo!
Thanks so much for linking up! We're happy to "meet you!"
Thank You! Yes we were stationed there for 2 yrs and my 2 youngest Kiddies were born there. I think the entire Ketchup concept is really cool…it was hard to fit it into 57 words but I liked it. Looking forward to the 1st for the next one.. 😀
