Two years ago my daughter-in-law dragged my grand kids to Germany for a three year stay.
She is a civilian working for the Army. My son quit his job here in the states to follow her but he found another in Germany.
While at first I was very sad that they were moving so far away for so long I was also very happy for them. They have gotten to see many things and visit many countries while over there.
This past Christmas was hard but I got threw thinking only one more year to go and they will be moving back home.
Then I get a phone call today to tell me my daughter-in-law has gotten a promotion and is moving to a new base in Germany. My son has also found a position he can transfer to on this new base. I am thinking this is great. They are doing very well. Could not be prouder of them.
Then she drops the bomb shell. To get this new job they must sign up for another three years.
Life must be good in Germany but I sure miss them grandkids. A vacation to Germany may be in my future.
