A Fond Farewell......Kristi Style

This is an actual picture of my husbands boat.....its not everyday that you can go to the beach and see this site!!!! Well yesterday he left but beings that he had duty on Wednedsday I had to say my goodbye a day earlier. Yesterday I took my youngest son to the beach to watch the boat leave and I was proud I did not get upset at all. There were only 4 other wives there so it was really low key. Back when we were on our last boat you might go to the beach and there would be 20 wives waiting on that damn submarine. I think that me taking the youngest down to watch it leave is good because he has a true understanding that the submarine has left, it is not just somewhere out in cartoon world. He knows that his daddy was on that boat and that it left and went into the big ocean and that it goes underwater and he sleeps on it. Today I am still good, I think I let the emotions get me on Tuesday night and Wednesday but all is calm for the moment. I am sure in a couple days the true lonliness will set in. I have you guys for support and comfort during all of this. You all have been wonderful with your nice comments. Thank you oh so much
