I and Maggie,filled with tears in her eyes realized that all the days I was unable to be at home with the kids,all the important anniversaries,birthdays,holidays I had to miss came to an end for now........  Future deployments of course lie ahead but as for that day my wife and kids,Michael,Chris,Tony and Robby,are going out to celebrate daddy's proudest moment in his life..........
