life as an Army Wife.

some may think that living the life as an army wife is easy. but its really not, its long days with out your husband, trying to do all you can to pass the time. its long nights alone, unable to sleep because he's not home. its years away from when you'll see your loved one next. its children being away from their parents, not knowing when mommy or daddy will be home again. its knowing that in a seconds time life as you know it could drastically change. its knowing what bills you have and that the pay check is just barely going to cover them. its being there for other wives and helping them through the same rough times. being an army wife is about knowing all of this and more, but being strong enough to stick it through and stand by your soldier, and support them in everything they do!!

i wear no uniform, no dress blues or army greens, but i am in the military in the ranks rarely seen.
i have no ranks on my shoulders, salutes i do not give. 
but the military world is a place i have grown to live. 
i am not in the chain of commands, orders i do not get but my soldier is the one who does, this is cant forget.
i am not the one who fires weapons or who puts my life on the line. 
but my job is just as tough because i am the one who is left behind. 


a friend of mine had this on her facebook, i thought it fit perfectly with what i was blogging about today!

truth is, i wouldn't trade the life i live for anything in this world! is it hard? of course, but no one said life was easy! and i chose this life for me, and i couldn't be happier! <3

i am proud to be standing by my hero, my love, MY SOLDIER!
