Just to hear his voice...

When you love someone you want to spend every second with that person. Well, loving someone in the military you are not able to do that.

The last time I saw Jonathan was over a month ago. Some might say "Oh it has only been a month you still have eight more to go." But when you look at it from my side, that just means that it is one month closer then I was one month ago. The time being apart is hard and long. The days of no phone calls or Skyping keeps me wondering what is going on and how he is doing. What I would give to get to hear his voice just for a second to say Hi, I'm okay and I love and miss you" But I know that it cannot happen like that all the time. That is why I have his messages saved on my phone, his dog tags always around my neck, his teddy bear by my bed, and most of all him in my heart everyday of my life. This is what keeps me through the times that are so hard and long. I know he is always with me where ever I go because not a second goes by without him occupying my thoughts and my mind.

So in all...I guess I do have my one and only with me every second of the day. It might not be physically but mentally and spiritually he is there. He is what guides me through each and every day. He is what keeps me strong and protects me. He is my hero! I love him with all I am

Just hearing his voice would be...

A GIFT.
