Sweet Sorrow

 I was just trying to get a shot of Draper and Sara, and didn't see the other couples until I put it up on the computer~
Draper left on Tuesday for the start of his deployment to Afghanistan.  He will spend some time in California for training and then "boots on the ground".  (I'm still trying to learn that USMC lingo).
We had a nice "Family Day" in Eugene before he left, but each moment is full of the unsaid-"you are leaving, we are staying, there will be an empty spot where you usually are, please come home safe."
