To say I’m excited that my husband comes home next week after working 11 months in Africa would be the understatement of the decade. Excited barely scratches the surface of my emotions. Aside from the joy of having help with an independent and headstrong 2 year old, I’m just happy to have my best friend back.
Here are just a few of the many things I’ve missed:
• Someone to roll the garbage can to the curb on Monday mornings.
• Back up in the murder of a particularly large and fast-moving Palmetto Bug.
• A foot warmer when I go to bed with cold feet and am too lazy to get up and find socks.
• A hug when I feel sad, stressed or discouraged.
• Someone to laugh at inside jokes. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen something hilarious that only Clint would find funny.
• In-house tech support. Although I have learned how to install Windows on a new laptop and set up a new wireless router.
• Someone who can make our two Labs mind with the simple snap of his fingers.
• Parenting support and all that goes with it.
I could go on with a list a mile long. But we’ll keep it simple and say I’m excited.

I do not discount the rest of your list, because all are very important and I'm glad you'll have them again soon, but I especially agree with number 2. Assistance with regard to bug killing is absolutely necessary.
On a serious note, I'm happy that you guys will be in the same zip code again. Welcome home, Clint!
The Holly-part of my heart feels happy and content again. I'm so excited for you!!! =D
So glad you guys have made it through and it's coming to an end. I know I would really miss the whole inside jokes thing if John was gone too. Oh, and definitely the spider killer :)
