With what happen at Fort Hood last week and Veterans Day tomorrow I have had a lot on my mind in the last few days. I would first like to say that my heart is with the families of those who lost loved ones in Fort Hood and in the last year in the war. I am thankful for all who serve in our military, for keeping this nation free. I am very thankful to my husband who works very hard every day, thankful for the husband and father that he is. I love him very much. As a wife to some one in the military I often worry about him when he is gone with the navy to different parts of the world. And I am always so thankful when he comes home and I don't have to worry as much because I can see and feel every day and know that he is ok. You never think that you have to worry about your husband going to work and getting killed. We all know that anything can happen and when it is time for someone to return to our Heavenly Father there is nothing we can do. But when you are a military family or wife you look forward to the time when your loved one is home and safe, looking to the time when you don't have to worry so much. Just know that it is not always easy being a military family and a member of the military. People ask me, how I do it, how I can live without my husband for months at a time? The answer is easy because its what I have to do.
If I can ask everyone one thing: tomorrow thank some one who has or is serving in the military. Don't think about weather you think we should be in this war or if you like the president or anything else. Just thank them for the service they do every day as the men and women of our military.
Thank You to all who serve and to the families for your sacrifice.
Thank You to all who serve and to the families for your sacrifice.
