Well he's still not home yet--in fact, I have no idea where he *actually* is... but what's new about that, right? Anyway--thanks for the celebratory wishes.

Sig Kap--enjoy every minute that you can. Hang in there.

J is deploying this week. Please everyone pray for a safe flight "over there" and a safe and soon return home! It looks like about 12-15 months...

Hang in there girl... The best advice I can give you is to talk now about how you're going to keep your love alive while he is gone. Its easy to let the daily stuff and the mundane, and the idea of not wanting to bother him, get in the way of communicating. And know that there are lots of people here if you need someone to talk to...

Zeta, you are about to become a military wife, the "backbone of the military". We are the strong ones who keep the home fires burning and don't give our men any stress while they are gone so they can focus on the mission. Keep your letters/emails positive and cheerful and full of "happy happy joy joy" (as we Army wives call it) even if the dog died, kids have the chicken pox and the basement is flooded. This is where your G/F's come in, you call them to complain about the "crap" happening in your life but NEVER EVER the military guy who needs to keep 100% of his brain focused on the mission.
I'll keep him in my prayers along with a lot of my other friends over there.

Ladies, we have, without a doubt, the most difficult job in the world. We are the reason our spouses/girlfriends/boyfriends/etc. can do their job. Our sacrifices will never be in vain. I salute you all! 48 days until my first deployment, OH BOY! =-o

Love,
SigKapAngel

So Jonathan left a couple days ago and I got my first phone call this morning. I had missed his call at 6:30 but I turned my ringer up after I woke up at 7 while I was getting ready for work and he was able to call again so I got about 10 minutes on the phone with him! :-) He hasn't reached his final destination yet, sounds like he won't fly out until tomorrow maybe. I hate how it's so delayed on the phone but maybe this well help him from constantly talking over me since he knows he needs to pause! LOL. Next summer can't come soon enough so we can finally get hitched!!

(((((military spouses, parents, families, all!)))))

My husband and I are Air Force veterans; I served from 1997-2007 (separated last October) and my husband served from 1996-2007 (separated last June but went into the Air Force Reserves in July).
