    My wife tells me how much she appreciates me for being out here so she can be a stay-at-home-mom. That means a lot. It tells me there's a purpose to me being away.

    Joetro, Alittle appreciation goes along way. I'm glad she lets u know. I ll have to remember try to not ever let hubby think he isn't appreciated. I had no idea before this experience about who was driving those big trucks. It gives me heart to think of all the men and women, out there towin the line to give their families the very best. You all have my respect!

    The hardest thing you will ever do is say goodbye, The best thing will be baby welcome home. Today is our 21 anniversary and this is my second marriage As I said before the marine corp commitments took my first but I am the better for it. This one is a keeper because we both said he'll I liked you then and I like you now. We are still best friends. When we are apart sometimes for more that a month it's ok because we figured it out. You will too remember he ain't out there cause he wants to be. He is out there cause it's the best decision right now.

    All good advice, tell him you appreciate what he does and he'll drive that truck thru he77 for you. It will get easier for both of you just try to keep busy. With young kids I imagine you are. Take care and God Bless

    My last post has bugged me a bit. Just want to say, some women cheat and I don't know why. It makes no difference if their man is an angel, a dirt bag, or anything in between. Sadly it is just something in some men or women. My humble opinion.
