Re-enlistment

My husband re-enlisted in the Navy last Friday for four more years. I was driving to the boat and traffic was so bad. It was bumper to bumper traffic and I just knew I wasn't going to make it to the ship in time. I was sitting in traffic, crying because I was failing at my first job as his wife because I wasn't going to make it to his re-enlistment. I was a wreck. I got to the gate of the base with five minutes to go until the ceremony on the boat was suppossed to start. I called Luis and asked him to have someone meet me to walk me up so that I could be there and I searched for a place to park. In front of the McDonalds was the only place I could find, and although I risked getting the truck towed, I parked there anyway. My husband was standing there at the turnstyle waiting for me and we hurried onto the ship. He had postponed the re-enlistment for fifteen minutes to give me time to get there. Thank God!!! They took a picture of us during the ceremony. I think it turned out pretty well.
