Chad,
Please come home soon. I cannot even begin to explain to you how much I miss you, or how much I think about you, or how much I worry about you. These things are all without end to me. Finite only when you come home and I can see you, touch you, and smell you.
I know this separation has been difficult for us - I wouldn't wish it on anybody else. I will feel safe again only when I see you step off the bus and feel your arms around me.
I know your e-mail doesn't always work, so I just wanted you to know that I love you always and forever, and that I will be here waiting for you until you come home.
Alex.
A beautiful, beautiful message as an uplifting part of a beautiful, beautiful relationship.
As someone who recently felt my husband's arms around me after 3 months apart (although not NEARLY the same situation with Chad being in the sandbox) I can tell you it's worth every second of waiting.
He'll be home before you know it.
There really isn't much I can say to 'make things better'. Military wife or not. So instead of blowing smoke up your ass I'll just send you a huge cyber ((HUG)).. and you know where to reach me if you want to get your mind off it. Just tell me first and I'll go drink so I can amuse you for a little while.
