Thanks, I appreciate it. We'll still be here for another week or so.
My biggest hero in all of this is my wife. We were married for 4 months before I left, and now we'll be apart for 12. Yet she still supports me in all of this, and as difficult as it is to be apart for the holidays, she will carry on. All while being a full-time student, doing her nursing job, and taking care of a house for the first time in her life.
A lot of soldiers' wives give them ultimatums.. "choose me or the military". But I know Elizabeth would never do that, as much as she would like to. I almost wish she would, because it would make my choice of whether to stay in after I get back much easier.
Anyhoo, not trying to hijack the thread (big loss, I know), I'd just like to share that.
