Being a military kid has so many plusses...so many perks...but one of the negatives is having to say
goodbye frequently...goodbye to family back home, and then goodbye to friends that are moving to another duty station...

Oldest DD had to say goodbye to one of her best friends yesterday...it breaks my heart, and I cried as much as they did...its so hard, to say goodbye...I hope someday we are stationed at the same place as they are...so until then...

Journaling around the page is the lyrics to the song:
IT'S SO HARD TO SAY GOODBYE TO YESTERDAY

How do I say goodbye to what we had?
The good times that made us laugh
Outweigh the bad.

I thought we'd get to see forever
But forever's gone away
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.

I don't know where this road
Is going to lead
All I know is where we've been
And what we've been through.

If we get to see tomorrow
I hope it's worth all the wait
...
And I'll take with me the memories
To be my sunshine after the rain
It's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.
