This man is my better half, he gives big and loves hard in his actions-speak-louder-than-words kind of ways. Duty calls close to home and far away, and he always answers. Our family doesn’t know what tomorrow brings, but we do know we rank at the top of his priorities. Though circumstances change with the winds, he is a steady oak who lives what he believes.
I am unabashedly biased, but our servicemen and women are some of the best folks on God’s green earth. I’m thankful for all those who do what they do so I can do what I do. It’s no small gift.
{And to my favorite serviceman, I love you madly and wouldn’t trade the transient life we’ve lived for all the stay-in-one-place plans in the world. *You* are no small gift. }
{And you look hot in your uniform. Yes, sir. }
