Flashback Friday

This was taken in the summer of 2007 and the sweetie on my shoulder is my second oldest, Ephraim. I think he is 15 months old in this picture, which is how old my youngest son, Hickory is now. This was also taken 11 months into my husband's 16 month long deployment to Iraq. Thank you to my friend, Jen, who found this photo the other day! I could not have gotten through that time without her!
