Goodnight......



I Believe Lyrics

I read a blog post by Butterfly Wife tonight that had me thinking about some things.......the troubles that we endure during deployments, the almosts on the highway, the child that was rushed to the emergency room, you wait wondering, scared......alone.

I could write a book about the tragedies that have befallen my family, but what I started to think about was the fact that we as military wives, we are able to do almost anything. I don't mean in a professional way, I mean we soar over and above these troubling times......is it our strength, our independence, or our endurance.......maybe a little of all, but today I looked up into a puffy cloud and saw something miraculous.....I saw me, and 40 years of overcoming and realized that I grew from it..........and then for the first time in months, I cried.

These deployment angels as she called them.....they are here if you know where to look....or to listen......today I heard three songs on different stations, and no they were not Christian stations, but Country stations and one in particular stuck in my mind.

Call it serendipity, call it what ever you will......but I believe...thank you BW for reminding us all of these ANGELS.........

~Goodnight, may God watch over you as you dream...........
