The Holidays
I have spent 1 real Christmas with my husband and we weren't even married when I did. One year he was away another he was on duty and this year he will have duty Christmas eve but will be home for Christmas day. That is a blessing i am most grateful for. There are many military wives out there who spend no holidays with the loved ones while I have been spoiled and have had my husband for either Christmas eve or Christmas day. I have also stayed in the town I grew up in, so my whole family resides here. I have never truly been alone or away from my family. So this one goes out to the brave women who spend time thousands of miles away from family or their husbands aren't home for the holidays, I commend you for your bravery and your strong will to continue with this lifestyle even with the demands it carries. Thank you for all the silent ranks out there standing by their men no matter what circumstance the military puts us in.

There are husbands and wives married to their military spouse who moved thousands of miles away to live with their love ones, and sometimes, end up being lonely also.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ones who are deployed now.... in the desert, cold and eating crap for the sake of our "freedom".
