It's almost November.
Danny left today for Iraq. I am feeling melancholy. However, I know I will cope and eventually he will be home. I have the rest of this month and a week into May to get myself ready for boot camp. After boot, its off to Corps school. So getting my new career started will be the solace that fills the void that Danny's attention occupied when he was here.
Our farewell was not one that most military couples get to have. We could not hug, we could not kiss. We could not tell each other how much we loved another with the presence of other people around. The week leading up to today and the drive up to Camp Pendleton were the times where we said our "goodbyes."
It's only been a few hours since I last felt his head rest on my shoulder and already I deeply long for that sensation.
It's times like these were you wish that every moment you spent with your love one was filled with candle-lights and tender kisses. It's times like now where you wish you could take back all the arguments you had and times you were angry with each other. But, it's times like now where you learn to grow most. It's times like now when I make a promise to never forget to say, "I love you."
I love you, Babe.
