~~A Years Worth of Letters and More~~

For the past few days I have been sorting all the letters, cards, e-mails, pictures, and newspapers that Cody, the kids and I sent back and forth for one year. This was a bigger task then I had planned. I wanted them the be in some sort of order.
Just getting them in and in order has taken me 2 days and I would be done with that if I wouldn't have ran out of page protectors. There is probably at least 150 things that I have cut and pasted onto pages.
I am glad that Cody kept everything and brought it home these were all the homemade Christmas ornaments that I made to go on this little tree that I stuffed in a box and sent over to him. That was one of the only things he couldn't fit to bring back. The ornaments are made of pictures of Family and Friends.
This is were I am at I made it to the month of January so I only have just about 5 of the months left. By the time it is all done the scrapbook is going to be so stuffed full it isn't funny but I don't want to make two. It has been kind of fun looking back on everything reading letters and emails we sent to each other. The experience of Cody being gone I think has made us a stronger couple and more understanding. Don't get me wrong that year was the worst I look back on it and I don't know how I did it and hopefully I never have to do it again.
