It has been six months since you last saw him
You counted each and everyday as it went by
Life went on and you grew as a woman
Learning so many new things and you realized
how much you can do
So there are less days to mark off
Things have changed at home
You have changed as a woman
But you wonder will our love
be the same as before
Then you think it will be better
Our love will be stronger
You just can wait for that day
When you hold him and kiss him
and feel his love for you
The homecoming day is close
and plans are in full force
You look at yourself in the mirror
and you see a changed woman
You wonder will he see the changes
Will he like the changes that have occurred
in you life in six months
Six months of being a mother and father
Paying the bills on time, cooking, cleaning
and working full time
Trying to be strong for your sailor
Keeping the home fires burning
Waiting by the phone during the port calls
Praying that he is safe in this volatile time in
the world
Just living day by day make the best decisions
you can at the time without his input
Wondering woow how time went by
Now you have to go back at look at the goals
you set for yourself
But be proud Navy Wife even if some of your
goals were not met or none of them
Just be proud of yourself for all of your
accomplishments during the six months
Feeling the excitement at the pier when you
see his boat as it pulls in carrying such precious cargo
YOUR BELOVED SAILOR WHO IS OUT THERE PROTECTING
ALL OF US SO WE CAN BE FREE!
God Bless Our Military Families.
