The girls are doing well. Luckily Ellie is a bit too young to know when someone is gone or not. Valerie is doing better this time but definitely understands that Daddy is not coming back for awhile. There is a Sesame Street DVD that the military gives out for free that helps talk about deployments and we watched that together. She will tell you that Daddy is on a trip, on an airplane, and that when he comes back she gets a birthday party. In fact she will talk to you about her 3rd birthday for hours, even if you try to change the subject!!!
Speaking of birthday's.. Eleanor turns 1 next month! I can hardly believe it. She's a big girl! Ellie is quite a bit tougher than Valerie as she has to be to keep her sister from trying to ride on her back when she's crawling. She's cruising, not yet walking, and likes to push things. Ellie doesn't talk too much though. Valerie was much more dramatic and talkative, yet not as active at this age. It is funny how different they are!
Not too much to share as of now.. I'll include a picture from Valentine's Day of my 3 loves:
