I am sooo glad DH got out of the army! SIL gets to Cairns on 25th Jan and is due 25th Feb! The hardest thing for her is that the hospital in Canberra refused to see her for her pg cause she wasn't going to be there for the birth.
I hope Joel doesn't have to go to Afghanistan that must be worrying for you and bad timing too. Do you have family in QLD?
