For everyone who has been keeping up with our pay battle, the NOV 1 LES just came out and WE GOT OUR BACKPAY for not only Family Separation, but also for BAH! I'm shaking and my heart is beating like crazy and I'm breathing like I just ran a marathon. I never thought this day would come. I think I might cry...no, really. The hugest weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I just keep staring at the LES like it's a dream.
Now if only David will hurry up and call me so I can relieve the weight on his shoulders, too.
This feels like nothing short of a miracle. God is so good. Thanks to everyone who prayed with us for this to pull through.
Here come the tears. Happy tears.
Update: I just told David and his reaction was "HHOOLY POOOP! :)" He signed on and asked what was going on. I said "Check the LES. I'll wait..." and that's what he responded with a few minutes later. He says he's going to do backflips in the MWR. And most importantly, we know it was only through both of us praying like crazy that it all worked out. I love to hear him so relieved. Now he can focus on his job and nothing else. Our stress levels will be so much lower, which is going to make the days move faster. This is all just amazing.
