I AM THE WIFE OF A UNITED STATES SOLDIER

I'm the girl standing behind you in line at the grocery store, eyeing the newest Support Our Troops magnet while paging through the latest issue of Cosmo. The look on my face is complacent and my thoughts are thousands of miles away on some military base

Jesus, girl, you're gonna break my heart, too. Every time I see you or read this journal, I pray for you and for Will, and for those babies. I can't even imagine how this whole situation makes you feel, and I wish I could do something to make it better, but I just don't know what to do. In all my life, I never dreamed the quiet, shy little girl who was my baby sister would grow up to be such a strong woman, but you did, and I know you'll be ok because of that. I'm very proud of everything you've become, and I'm proud to have Will for a brother-in-law. Sure, it's hard for you now, but it'll get better and this separation will only bring you guys closer in the end.
