My dearest sweethearts, I love and miss you so much.

I loved talking to you on the phone today! We are almost one-quarter done. That means three more parts and Mommy will be home.

Have any flowers bloomed yet? When the flowers bloom, Mommy will be home soon after. When it starts to get hot outside, then I will be home soon and we will all go to Disney World together. Daddy might come home a few days before me, or we might be able to come home together! Aren't you excited?!

I am so glad that you are having fun with Nana and Papa. I hear that Papa and Baylen have a "men's club" and that Nana and Albany have "girl power."

Albany, are you enjoying your KinderMusic? How is the math coming along Baylen? Let Nana and Papa work with you at home on your reading. Ms. Kayla will be very impressed.

I hope you have a great Valentine's Day. Today I'm sending an extra hug, kiss and three extra kisses and a zoobert for your belly.

I love and miss you all. Pet Riley for me and tell him he's a good doggy from Mommy.
