That is probably the finest compliment I could ever get.  Have I told you lately that I love you?

This is a sweet, sweet story that substantiates what you have always claimed--that all the boys are your boys--and that you have a genuine caring and bond for the others who have relatives in Iraq.

(sorry if I sound redundant, but, it's simply what I was thinking when I read your story).

Sitting here typing with tears in my eyes.  I had wanted to see that show, but missed it.  I'm glad your man will be home to you soon, and thank God for duds!

All I can say is that a DUD kept me out of her shoes all to recently.  I'll keep my house that needs more work than we will ever get done...just give me my husband.

I saw part of that program, MW........she was so sweet....

I thought I would cry when she showed her little girl her new room and that child was just in awe - it was so touching.    She hardly realized that her daddy would never come home.  God bless them.  Her infant was just new.  God, I want that war to be over, as does everybody. 

Hang in there, Honey, your husband will soon be in your arms, never to leave them again.  Thanks for sharing your feelings.  I know it makes you feel better and for that I'm happy.

I liked a child called it for 2 reasons a) it was writen with blunt truth, b) I was beaten a few times, but never taken away... Be right back

I'm ok...we are so close to having him home I canbarely believe it most days...somethings I suspect will always hit me in such a way.

It was certainly an emotional one.  It was so nice to see some of them get something good when they came home.

LOL, I starting crying from the moment they showed the plane pull in.  For me watching others come home is always so bittersweet.   I am so happy to see them come home but there is always a bit of jealousy on part as well.

Actually I generally turn something else on...but the minute I realized what the show was about, I simply could not turn it off.  Thanks

I watch that show all the time, and I wanted to watch that episode
But I was working. I'm so glad that your soldier is coming home and you won't have to be apart from him anymore. My prayers are with you

So tragic Military Wife
Powerful, moving writing. My thoughts and prayers sent.

I did not see this program, Military_Wife, but if I had, I would have been crying right along with you.  Heartbreaking!

I hope you're saving
your blogs and collecting them in a notebook. They are so touching and hopeful and gut real, they ought to be kept -- maybe put into a book one day. Very good writing. :)pat

Thanks so much for the read.  As for being amazing...I simply accept the hand that has been dealt to me. Sometimes we don't know what we can handle until we find that we must.  My husband is nearing the end of his tour and hopefully the fates will see fit to let him finish his last two years until retirement without another.

Thank you so much.

You are an amazing woman!

The strength it must take to make it through a day is something I hope to never have to understand -- my husband goes to work and comes home every single day...My heart absolutely goes out to you for what you are enduring and I will pray for your husband's safe return.
