Missing My Soldier this Valentines Day

Well, as some of you may have been following along our lil story, My Hubby and I will not be together this Valentines Day.He is still doing the "Army thing". So for now, we will get phone calls and whatever we've sent each other via USPS to celebrate.
If anyone would have told me a year ago that we would be "here" I would have laughed at that far fetched thought!

A year ago today, we got engaged! Feb. 10th, 2007Jan. 16th, 2007 was our 2 year Anniversary. (first date)and We were married on Dec. 24th, 2007

Wow, we have alot of dates to remember! And that doesn't include the ump-teen hundred birthdays we have to stick on a calendar!

We met, Jan of 2006. We had spent alot of time talking on the phone, and meeting up for pie and coffee in the wee hours of the morning when the kids were asleep. We have such wonderful conversations. We can talk about anything, from politics to poopy diapers.
We can talk all through the night, we can debate and express our ideas and thoughts and it's wonderful! We played cards at my old kitchen table, talking, joking and just being together.
I miss our conversations. I miss our time together, our evenings over pie and coffee and conversations or card games....
Now, we have our conversations, via cell phone and occasionally, on one of the slew of messenger services that we can chat through. We spend hours on the phone once he's done for the day, I will even pull a late nighter with him when it's his turn for "duty" so he's not alone.
I think someone was on to something when they had that idea that communication was the key to a great relationship! It really is, but let's not ignore the physical... although we obviously have to right now. I am looking forward to just being in his arms.So, next week, We will be leaving, taking "Momzilla" (Our 15 passenger van) down to him for a week. We will get to spend time together and attend "Family Day" and his Graduation, FINALLY, from all his Army required trainings!!

Our Valentines Day will be February 16th!

So, I am hoping everyone has a wonderful, Love filled Valentines Day and I will be going to the one I love, to fill him with all our Love... Our Soldier, Our Hero, We will finally get to bring him home... if only for a little while, but we will enjoy every day we can with him!
