Hi! We have a (somewhat) similar situation since my DH is military. My suggestion for you would be to talk to potential homestudy agencies right upfront about your situation. You will be able to get an idea of whether they will have a problem with your situation or not, and you can choose accordingly. Some social workers are more understanding about this type of thing than others, we found. One we talked to wanted us to give them a guarantee that DH would not be leaving the country for the next 3 years--THAT certainly was not possible for us! The homestudy agency we ended up using had no problem with DH being deployable; the SW just asked a lot of questions about the stability of our marriage, our support system (family and friends), etc. to be sure that the child would be in a good atmosphere in spite of DH absences.
I think you will be just fine!
