How did we prepare for Oliver's first deployment? 

Communication, expectations, plans, prayer, trust, and peace-of-mind were key.

Excerpt from the 2021 prayer for our family: 

"When there are unknowns -- give us peace and patience. When there is distance and deployments -- give us love and communication. When there is anger -- give us kindness and self-control. When there are endings and new beginnings -- give us faithfulness and trust. Help us rise to the challenges that we will face this year. Make us more aware of our surroundings, and let us continually learn and grow. Give us opportunities to serve, to laugh, to gather, and to make memories." 

In today's episode we go into detail about our first year as parents.
