FINALLY can see the end of this mess!!! The expected date they say he'll be back in the states is nlt July 2nd..yay! Hopefully the next post I'll write will be about Tucker's homecoming!! =) I can't wait. This has dragged on for far too long now, its about time it comes to an end. As awful as this was, I can't say it hasnt been rewarding. They say deployments can make or break a marriage...for us I'm certain it did wonders. Not that we had a horrible first year of marriage..it was awesome! But getting used to each other and the whole "team/unity" thing wasnt the easiest thing for us to conquer. Tucker had his life and everything put together, and I was still trying to figure out life (fresh out of high school none the less) now married, in a whole different state, no job, no school planned out. It was hard adjusting, and Tucker (being 3 years older than me) didnt quite understand why.
I feel like I know myself a whole lot better now than I did prior to him leaving. I feel more organized, and I have goals set for myself...with college and just my overall future. I'm still not ALL put together, but I believe in myself now, and I wouldnt put it past me to REALLY try once Tucker is back home.
Also, the time apart has taught us how important each moment with each other truely is. How lucky and blessed we are to have each other, and not to take it for granted. Time is precious.
