Just what the Dr. Ordered. :)

Been dealing with lonely feelings this week. My husband has had to spend the night away for the past two weeks..He has been able to come home for dinner..but I still have an empty bed at the end of the night. :( Then on Thursday he leaves for training..2 more weeks that I wont see him at all...I miss him every time he leaves. Which brings me to my reason for writing this journal...
It started with me shopping for items to make a diaper motorcycle for a friends baby shower. I got home..started making this and realised...I don't have enough friends ( i have 2 friends.. wouldnt really call them close friends .. to be exact) that would throw a baby shower for my very last bundle...I got emotional..then realized...I just spent more money on my friends baby then on my own..which..I hadn't bought anything for. My husband called right in the middle of this emotional moment for me. My emotions were all over the place due to him being in an out the past 2 months and me feeling so alone with 2 girls already...and not really being able to share cute fun moments with him and the one in my tummy. Anywho... He wasn't due to come home that night and at about 10pm he walks in the door with Roses and a bag...He said "i hope this is ok?....I just felt really bad." I opened it up and there was bunch of clothes for our new addition! Mittens, socks, onesies,Sleeper gowns, and a really cute come home outfit! My husband is AMAZING!
He does his best at making sure that the family doesn't come last..but the Military way is...Army, GOD, Family. Our personal family motto is not that way. GOD, Family, others..... So not getting offended when he has to follow his commands and honor his contract..is so difficult sometimes. Ok..most of the time. We both just want each other..and a regular family life now. When he first enlisted..it was for the right reasons...serving our country!!!! Pride..but, now that it has taken away from us..and our family so much...we are happy to pass the torch to another family wanting to take it on. We have served our country..done our part..its time to be a regular family again. Problem...we have 2yrs left. :( and another deployment..once again..right after our baby is born. So....what do we do...Take moments like I wrote above, cherish them and continue making more moments of appreciation for one another.
I just thought I would pass that on to all of you. I know how sometimes we all get so caught up in the daily grind..its' easy to lose focus on the small things. Sometimes just winking at your significant other is just what the Dr. Ordered!
Have a good day ladies. Rub them bellies for luck!

I'm just really glad I got to share them. Thank you knicole...we have a dinner date set for next week..We will get in touch for the day and time :) Ginabee, Thanks for your kind words! I greatly appreciate it! Destiny, Thank you for sharing the moment with me...and...I thought he did a fabulous job too..more impressed with the fact that he remembered all my favorite must have items! He also let me know..that the things we have from our two other girls..were special..but, every baby needs there own first home outfit. :) Blessings to you ladies. Thanks for helping me smile when emotions run high. :) | |

| Comment from knicole27 » Posted May. 7, 2012 11:55am awww hun that is so sweet of him!! what a great husband! i feel you on the friend thing. I have no friends or family i guess for that matter that will throw me a shower either so I understand this. I am going to have to really budget to get myself pretty much EVERYTHING since this is my first. I don't know what I am doing. I feel so lost and lonely most days. ugh. Like i said in text earlier.. if you need any help or anything or just need some adult interaction lol.. after I am better .. I will def. need some! :) |
