And then they called him on a mission

Buddy left this morning! It didn't really hit me that he was really leaving until I walked into his room last night and saw him finishing packing his stuff. I love him a lot and I'm really going to miss him. He's my big brother, and he means the world to me!! I am SO proud of him and I can't wait to hear about all the fun experiences he has while he is away. I know he will be safe and taken care of, and he will be helping TONS of people. I love him with all my heart, and even though it is really hard to see him leave, I know that this is what he needs to be doing right now and he is going where he needs to go. I couldn't be more proud of him, and the amazing man he has become. This past weekend I watched him playing with our younger cousins, pushing them on the swings, and chasing them around the playground, and I decided that I want my future husband to be a lot like my big brother. :)

Great post. You would be making a great choice if you could choose a husband like buddy. That's for sure.

That is a very sweet post Hannah. I hope you find a guy just like buddy. I think the best thing you can do at this point is to concentrate on being the kind of girl that that kind of guy wants to marry. You are already so sweet and thoughtful and considerate and funny.... I wonder what else he's looking for. :)
