Why i appreciate my soldier....

Great to be back, i was sick at the first of the week but feeling a little better now, i think i might have caught a teeny tiny bug, so watch out now.. lol

So its military appreciation week, and a certain soldier, that i appreciate SO SO much comes to mind, he left his family behind to journey to a new land with a mission that must be completed... i rememeber the day he left, and it still hurts.. Did you guess who?? yeah that man i call husband, the boss, my other half, Sgt Jonathan Walker.
 I think about the courage that it takes to do what he does, to go far away from the only place you have called home into a dangerous situation and put your life on the line for people that dont know him or anything about him, and i appreciate that. Theres no way to truely express the gratitude that i and others have for the things he has done in the military, he makes us SO proud. But theres another side that i appreciate, the civilan side. Jonathan is not perfect, although he thinks he needs to be, but i think hes perfect just the way he is. Theres never been a time, that me and my girls didnt have what we needed, and he has given everything to make us happy. He always took out the garbage and cut the grass and fix the things that were broken, even went and worked on a river boat for a month at a time. Hes a provider, a wonderful husband and father, a man... and i appreciate that.
This week there are SO many soldiers that are away from home, both male and female, that certainly miss family members back home. Babies are being born, birthdays and anniversaries are being celebrated, life in general is continuing on without those brave men and women that protect and serve our country with honor. I know that the 204th are gone and its kinda hard to shake their hands this week, but if you have a facebook and you know a soldier, write them and tell them how much you appreciate the sacrifice they go through everyday. I appreciate my soldier, and the whole 204th. We are a family, and we go through deployment together as one. THANK YOU military men and women for ALL you do. We would have nothing without you.....

Lemme leave you with this....
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.”
1 Thessalonians 5:11

Everyone have a great week....

With all my love...
