Hey, Baby, Where's the Kevlar?

Sometimes I forget just how different my life is from everyone else.

I put my big girl panties on just like everyone else, but when your spouse is in the military, things are just a little different.

It's was Monday morning. 7:20 a.m. I have the three girls dressed, lunches made, bags packed, teeth brushed, shoes tied and hearding them toward the car when I hear this statement:

"Hey, have you seen my Geneva Convention Card and my pocketknife?"

I just looked at my husband and said "What?".

He repeated the question.

My reply:

"Are you being dropped behind enemy lines today? If not, I can find it later."

Yep, just the regular conversations couples have in the morning.
