Oh Cathy... words spoken perfectly... makes me cry just reading this...My husband is Retired Navy, and this definitely brings back memories of when my he wasn't home, and I had to take care of things... like the time the Mall flooded where I worked...drowned lots of cars...my Astro van had 3 ft of water....inside.... oh joy!!.....or the time once when he was told...."your wife wasn't issued to you with your seabag"....lol.... but then the line from the CO when my husband made Chief..."The wives play a most important roll in their husbands career"...and then he proceeded to explain about the R&R trip the ship was making to New York....and I got to miss out on his Making Chief Ceremony....uummmm.....but through it all....I absolutely loved being a Military Wife.... Loved moving to new cities to explore....Loved clearing out old junk every time we moved... and loved the pride for my Military man...and the service he gave to his country... the service the whole family gives to our country... and I try hard every day to continue to support our active troups today...and the families they leave behind....and all the warriors when they come home...and continue to need our help... "When they come back, We give back"...my new motto... so thankful to all the military spouses...and their sacrifices.... thank you Cathy for writing this blog. ((hugs))
