I am so proud of my daddy, but I sure do miss him. I didn't understand that when I kissed him and waved bye-bye to him Monday night that he was going away for such a long time. Mom told me he is in San Antonio, Texas and that we will go there to see him in September. He is now not only my daddy, but also an Airman. In this picture he is getting "sworn in," whatever that means. It kinda looks like they are waving bye-bye.
Here is a closer shot. When I see my daddy in photos Mom shows me, I touch his face, lean in and give him a big kiss. I know he misses me as much as I miss him - maybe even more.
This is the first picture of daddy as an active member of the Air Force. He was tired because he had to get up at 3 a.m. He probably won't get a good night of sleep for a while...basic training sounds tough to me!
I look for daddy, but I guess he really is gone like Mom said. I can't wait to show him how I can high five and I will give him the BIGGEST kiss ever in September. Love you, Daddy. -maddox
