A Sad Farewell...

The time finally came for Juan to leave... I am hanging in there. Trying to keep myself busy and keep my mind off how much this next 7-13 months are going to suck... I have turned into a leaky faucet. Never know when something will set me off... I feel like I am a combination of a pregnant women PMS and a 14 year old girl.... Emotions running wild. I am pretty good at keeping my emotions at bay but its nights that always get me... When things are quiet and I have too much time to think about stuff... I miss him... I worry for him... and I love him. My heart literally hurts. Its a feeling I can't explain. Its a constant feeling of loss yet worry but still hopeful and proud. To be honest its a horrible combination... I hope you guys keep him in your thoughts as well as everyone else over there....


I love you Pop... See you soon....

I've been through it more than I ever thought possible. One day will follow another until they have all passed.

Oh Brooke, it must be awful for you.
I hope he is able to stay in touch regularly. Being British I'm crap at the emotional stuff so sending a virtual awkward fumbled hug your way x

Iam an Army wife, I know your struggles and I know exactly how you feel. The words in your blog I have felt several times. Its hard to see them go, you try to fight back the tears but they just come at there own will. Iam proud of my husband but inside Iam dying because he isn't always there to fix things or fix me when I have had a bad day. lol. Just hang in there, time will fly by. I think the night is the hardest part of the deployment. Days are easier cause you can keep busy. I will be praying for your soldier, please pray for mine. BIG HUGS from an Army wife~
