I am feeling a tad bit achy. My heart aches.
I miss Dayv so much I can hardly breathe..
I marvel at those that say they wished that their mate could leave for just a little bit.
Or so that they can have a break.
Or that they need to get away.
Or even that their spouse is driving them crazy.
I don't understand that mentality honestly.
At all.
You see..
I am really no different.
I am just another wife of a military man.
And I'm not one to sit and complain at him being gone, at all.
But I can assure you that I'd give anything to have him home right now.
To look over and have him playing on his favorite computer game.
To see him smile.
To hug him.
To laugh.
Talk things through.
Share in our new house and what's going on with it.
But I can't.
And yet I am no different.
Nor am I using the "my man's deployed card" either.
I don't own that kind of a card.
But today my heart breaks.
I sure miss him like crazy.
So if you are one of those that would ever want a break.
Or wished that their spouse would stop being right up under them..
Then think of me.
I'll trade places with you in a heartbeat.
Cause today my heart aches.

On a different note this AM A came to me
and asked me to do her hair.
You know our hair stories...
Well she got this American Girl Doll hair book.
It teaches you how to do your American Girl Doll's hair.
Alyssa has Molly.
She plays with that all the time now.
But she's taken it to trying new things with her hair.
Although this isn't out of the ordinary for girls' hair, it is for A.
She's trying new things because I think she realized that she could.
But I told her that several times.
Instead she chose to find it in a book!
*Sigh*
Oh well at least she's still a cutey!

Oh Elizabeth! I understand how you feel, and when I say that I mean it! I know how it feels to have them gone for so long, and just want them home so badly you just don't think you can make it another minute without them. The longest Jake has ever been gone was 1 month, but I didn't know I could hurt that much. People that say that they need some time away from their spouses have obviously never had time away from them. I can remember not washing a t-shirt of Jake's, just so at night I could hold it, smell his cologne, and cry myself to sleep. Now my brother is going to be deployed on top of it all. I have learned to manage when Jake is gone, but it is always foremost in my thoughts. God provides comfort, and sustains us through it. But sometimes you really want your best friend there with you. I am praying for you right now, and crying for you. I can't wait for him to get home to you and A. I love you girl!
Much love and many blessings
awww...Elizabeth!
I can't imagine how you must be feeling...my hubby is almost always with me, but do know I appreciate him!
hang in there I'm sure he misses you so much as well!!!!
Thanks for leaving me your kind comments at my blog!!! They are appreciated and make me smile!
I do feel for you! I can't say that I understand because I don't! I can say that I pray the time goes quickly for you! We have the book too but somehow I end up doing the hairstyles! I love to play too!
I am sorry your heart aches for Dayv so much today, Elizabeth! It must be hard. I know that I get to missing my dh sometimes just when he's at work, and that's only for a few hours, lol! I can't even remember the last time in the 8 years of our marriage that we've ever really been apart ... I think we've only been seperated maybe a weekend at a time. But yet, I do understand that ache of wanting to be with the one you love so badly... I feel the very same about my angels, and I too find it hard to comprehend when I hear some mothers say they would give anything for a break from their children.
Anyhow, you are so strong for being the military wife and mother that you are! And I may add, very brave too! God is holding you and Dayv in the palms of his hands right now and I'm sure he is looking forward to reuniting you too very soon! ((Hugs)), my friend!
Big {{HUGS}} I hope that you're feeling better today :) I know how it is for the most part...my DH was gone for a week at a time with his last job, but never more than that. It's a great sacrifice that military families make...and I know that is trite coming from some, but I REALLY mean it ;)
Hang in there! Love ya and will be praying for you always!
