Friends leaving

Yesterday was the saddest day in history.  I swear.  We found out our friends were accepted to early separate from the military and will be moving away real soon.  I was devastated.  They are our BEST friends.  Our one REAL friend.  There were many times throughout the day when I'd think of them and just tear up.  I'm really going to miss Pam!  She's always been a true friend.  I could call her up and talk about nothing.  I could vent.  I would encourage her that everything would be okay.  Many times in Germany, which is where we met, we lifted each other up because it can get lonely over there without any sort of family around.  We became family.  Now a part of my family is moving and I just don't know how to handle this.

Part of me hates the military.  Why would they let them separate and not us?  The whole officer and enlisted differences is the reason, but I'm jealous.  We really wanted out.  To have a normal life.  They get that chance to start a normal life with their beautiful family.  Jealous?  Yes, definitely!  I'm still extremely happy for them and the new possibilities of their new future.  I'm sad.  I'm happy.  I have a lot of emotions right now.  The kids don't understand yet, but when they don't get to see Lily on Fridays, they will be sad too, I know it.  They love their little buddy and partner in crime.

Here's to hoping our friendship remains after they start their new life!  

Pam, Jason, and girls...Good luck on all your new endeavors and hopefully we'll cross paths again!
