Im kind of used to it tho these days. We celebrated our first anniversary together early before he deployed to Iraq. Second anniversary we celebrated together, days after he came home from Iraq. Last year we spent it separated because of issues. This year we are apart because of training, and next year we will be apart because of deployment, again. :(
When you are married in the army or any military branch these special days are like a grain of sand. When we are together we make it special, and if we arent together we try and make a day closest to it special. Adapting, I have learned is the life in the army. We will probably be spending christmas apart so we will celebrate it early with the kids, birthdays too.
I hope at some point in our marriage we wont have to do this, but for now I guess I will have to accept it. I love seeing him when I can, and celebrating it when we can, but it is bittersweet celebrating when he is gone. We miss him dearly, and he has already missed out on too much. And with another deployment on the rise, he will miss even more.
Its a interesting pickle we are in with the army. Lots of learning, lots of maturing, and lots of love. One thing I have to agree with, when being a military wife, after a long separation you get to re live the first kiss all over again, and damn is it good :D
I love you Charles Ford
Happy Anniversary<3
