[QUOTE="tinamarie1, post: 45392, member: 255"] husband left for officer school early this morning. I had been the tough one up until this point. This weekend he kept saying that he wanted to push the pause button and just stay in certain moments. I would smile and say don't you start, we are going to be strong through this. Well this morning at the airport, we were sitting at a little table and he pulled me close and started reading his bible to me...the part that was in our wedding vows "where you go I will go...where you lodge I will lodge". I couldn't hold it in any longer. I know it may sound silly because its only 5 weeks that we will be apart. We just stood there holding each other sobbing. I guess you never know how much you love someone until they aren't there anymore. He is my best friend, the love of my life. Sundays are our days together, I make lunch for us, we read the paper together, I put my head in his lap and he strokes my hair. Did I say today is only day one? I have eaten so much junk today. Told my friend that and she said, honey you are compensating for the emotional bond that is now gone. Ugh! I need to find something to keep me busy on Sundays. All other days of the week are crazy with work, ball games, church. I just had to let it out. [/QUOTE]
