Amen!!!
my thoughts exactly.
I couldn't agree more, I hate not sleeping next to you and the monster G gave me just isn't cutting it. However, it will be over before we know it. Keep your chin up and that beautiful smile in place. Love you mean it.
awwww, truthfully told. It is exhausting isn't it? The effects of deployment trickle into every corner of our world. Mentally, physically, emotionally draining. There WILL be an end to it, even though it seems so far away. Remember, today is not one more day you've been apart from him, it's one more day closer to seeing him again :) Chin up :)
I'm tired too...but we have got this! Let's just keep hanging in there. Sometimes our rope may be thin and frayed, but reguardless we will keep on hangin.
