About me:
I ♥ My Hubby!
♥ I love to Write
♥ I’m so spontaneous, I never know what I’m doing next!
♥ I enjoy change!
♥ I aspire to be a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner!
Ugghm..Where to start? Well, I’d love to start out by saying that a lot of things have just changed for me recently! The hubby has recently reenlisted and we’ve got orders to Okinawa, but of course the Marine Corps has somehow still managed to change our orders twice!! I’m excited to experience the new change that has been put before Phil & I. It’s going to be hard and I know it will be tough, but I’m sure we'll get through it. I have a great support system and the most amazing best friends that a person could ask for. They maybe far but they are great by phone! Hey Alex, hey Maria! I’ve learned so much about people lately, I’ve meet some new great friends that I enjoy hanging out with! It's great having the hubby back after having him gone for 2.5 months! Oh and did I mention that I will officially be able to write a book on all kinds of PCSing!?!! If anyone has PCSing questions, I'm the gal to ask! Lol. I’ve also come across others who seem to want to be your friend, love hanging out with you, then poof, they turn into back stabbers. Then there have been those that you start hanging out with, and for some reason, they aren't around anymore. Well, as the phrase says "people are in your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime."
Who I'd like to meet:
I never wore the uniform,
no medals on my chest.
The band it doesn't play for me,
I am not among the Best.
I do not march in cadence,
I do not rate salute,
I stand among the silent ranks,
our devotion absolute.
If you've not worn my shoes,
you do not know my story.
I live a life of sacrifice,
my reward a private glory.
I've wept many silent nights away,
and I've kept the home fires burning.
I've worried and I've waited,
as world events were churning.
I've moved more times than you could fathom,
left more people than you've known.
I've planted gardens around the world --
Very few that I've seen grown.
I've grieved with new-made widows,
and had my share of scares --
when a ship or plane or man was down,
and all I had were prayers.
I'm not asking for your sympathy,
(although appreciation can be nice)
I did it quite on purpose though --
I chose to sacrifice.
I'll tell you a secret now,
one you'd never guess.
About the one glory that is mine,
it's just enough no more, no less.
When you and I stand together
as our national anthem plays,
I'll fill with reminiscences
of how I spent those days.
I'll know the pain and joys again,
I'll know that freedom isn't free,
I'll know I've helped to pay the price
& I know the anthem plays for me.
