11 year Anniversary

You know, I am not what most people would call a quiet person. In fact, most people would say that I talk too much, but it's me. What a lot of people don't realize is that I also keep my mouth shut more often than they'd think.  There are very few people in this world that I feel I don't have to hold my tongue for and one of them is my amazing husband.

Tomorrow we will be celebrating our 11 year anniversary. 

  

11 years that have passed by so amazingly fast and that have been absolutely wonderful. 

 

We have had so much fun and have built a wonderful life together. We have been blessed with a beautiful miracle of a child. 

 

I miss him everyday more than I could say.

Being the wife of a deployed soldier is hard enough, but celebrating holidays without him makes it even more difficult. I know it's just a day, I know it's going to pass with or without him, but I'd so much rather have him here.

I can't wait until he is home, safe again, in my arms and with our family. I can't wait to lie in bed together and be able to tell him everything I want to without holding back.

I know the next 11 years are going to be the best of adventures and the 11 years after that as well!

I love you and miss you My Love. Happy Anniversary!

Mother's Day

One of my very best friends is my mom. I can only hope that my daughter will love and look up to me like I look up to my momma. I have always sought advice, comfort, and love from her and I always will. Mom, I love you. This song is for you.

Mother by Donna Lewis
Lyrics

And I can hear you calling my name
your healing hands smooth away the pain
and I can hear you whispering it'll be alright
you'll stay until the night breaks into day

(Chorus)
you are my light in the dark
you stand beside me you take my hand show the way
you're here to guide me you give me the strength that I need
you giver me shelter
you gave me life you give me love
you are my mother

and when you hear me calling your name (I hear your voice)
you touch me with your chosen words
everlasting faith everlasting love is the greatest gift you have
believing understanding me

(Chorus)
you are my light in the dark
you stand beside me
you take my hand show the way
you're here to guide me
you give me the strength that I need
you give me shelter
you gave me life you give me love
you are my mother

closer closer
closer to heaven are you
(Repeat...)

(Chorus)
you are my light in the dark
you take my hand and show me the way
you give me the strength that I need
you gave me life you give me love
(Repeat)


I know how blessed I am to have my beautiful daughter, my love, my reason for this day. Happy Mother's Day to everyone!
