"Military Spouse, toughest job in the Military"

It's been really hectic for the past couple months. Which is why I haven't been on here in awhile. Going through this pregnancy has been tough but nothing will ever compare to knowing that your husband isn't going to be there when you need him the most. You will never know what it's like to be a military wife till you are one.

The day my husband got the call asking him to go out of the country for a job, I don't think it really hit me then that my love was leaving for so long. The closer it gets for me to be back in Washington the more it hits me. Doesn't help that I'm pregnant and very emotional. How do you cope with the fact that your husband is going to be there when you give birth? Or for the first 7 months of his life. You just do. You go on day by day, and remember that each day that goes by is a day closer that he comes home.

I am very nervous about everything. Scared you might even say. But I am very happy to finally be able to go home and be with my family and friends so I'm not "alone". All I can do is tell myself "I am going to get through this". I cannot wait for my little one to be here in my arms. That will be the biggest distraction for me. And then I am definitely looking forward to picking up my husband from the airport and him holding his boy for the first time. See you all in Washington!
