I miss my Husband

I miss my husband so much. He is gone to Canada for 3 weeks. He left last Monday and it has been horrible with out him. We didn't get to talk because it cost $1.50 a minute on our cell phones. 6 days is the longest we have ever went without talking. I made it through most of the week without crying. And I even was able to get to sleep at night without him. But yesterday I laid down for a nap on his pillow and I could smell him. I just laid there crying a little. I didn't want to move because I was afraid I would not find that spot again. Today I woke up and on Sundays he always cooks breakfast and that is what got me going. Not waking up to the smell of bacon. I broke down and called to leave him a message. I don't know if he could really understand the message through the sobs, but he understand I needed to hear from him. He called me and I was so overcome with happiness. It was a quick conversation, 4 minutes to be exact. He was watching the time because of the cost. It was enough. Just to hear his love in his voice and to hear him say he loved me. I'm not the kind that likes to be so dependent on anyone, but I am so completely head over heals in love with my husband that it turns me into one of those woman I used to think were pathetic. I am so blessed that I found my soul mate, best friend, wonderful father, perfect husband, and respected soldier all rolled into this fabulous man. I am so proud of what he does for this country. Even if it is hard on our family sometimes. His children miss him deeply, but say "Daddy's off being a soldier." You can tell they're proud.
Ashtyn is so much like him. When I am upset she says little things to torment me and make me laugh. When I was crying today she asked why. When I told her it was because I missed daddy she said "He ran away from you. Ha Ha." It may sound mean, but it is coming from a child who later said Dumbo couldn't fly because he was drunk. I am so glad I have my girls. I think sometimes they comfort me more than I comfort them. They are my rock. I am so glad that I found the person that I could love this much.
