In case you didn't know, my husband is currently in South Korea. I'm not sure if you've been following the news, but North Korea has been doing some pretty shady things lately- such as sinking ships and attacking islands, killing South Korean soldiers and civilians. Because of all that is going on, my husband's platoon has been on alert, and soldiers are not allowed to take passes or leave until further notice.
So that basically kills my hope of Aaron being able to be home for our son's birth. The only way he can come home is on emergency leave- once I'm already in labor. And it'll take at least twenty-four hours for him to get back into the states.
Here are some articles about what is going on:

Please pray for Aaron's safety {and that he can come home soon!}
Just sent up a prayer for your husband!

ReplyDeleteOh No! Oh I hope it all calms down soon and that he can come home. Or I hope you have a loooong labour. (Something I would not wish on someone normally.) A long and painless one so he can be with you.
