I'm the wife of an American Soldier;

I'm the hope that lives within him after storm clouded days.

The freedom from war that gives wings to his heart,

May they reach across the miles and bind our hearts together

against all that we must face in this world.

Yeah that is great! I think that will be good enough of a gift for her.

We are planning on doing the medical before I leave. I would have had all the stuff for the AOS, but I forgot my transcripts at my house. Only 4 days from getting back from kuwait until I left to come to the PI. Oh well...we are moving still.

I can't say my gift for my husband. I want to remain wholesome here. LOL!!!

My husband brings home flowers and chocolates for me even when there's no occasion so I specifically told him I don't want flowers and chocolates for Valentine's Day. He asked me if I want a spa treat instead and I told him there's no way I'm gonna spend hundreds of dollars for a service I can get free at home. I know it's not the same but still...In this time of recession, might as well go cheap and be practical. Since sooner or later we'll have to start buying new items for my pregnancy, I told him I would appreciate if he'll go shopping with me instead. He hates shopping with me because it takes me forever to pick even the simplest thing but he agreed to accompany me. Yay!!! :dance:
