Well, I received my first phone call from my wife today. It was a short little 10-15 second phone call to give me her address, but at least I got to hear her voice.
All in all it wasn't too bad of a day. Almost broke down several times at work today, but other than that, not too bad of a day.
It was very nice to hear her voice, and it made for a great Valetine's day gift for me. I am so looking forward to her next call, which will be her first real call...a 15 minute one. Which she should get one of those per week, so only about 5-6 calls while she is there. The rest of our communication will have to be through letter. So, I am signing off that way I can go write her a letter and head to bed.

Tough First Day...
Well, today, my wife/best friend took off for BMT and Tech School. The first day in a line of many.
We arrived at the airport this morning in enough time to spend about an hour together before she had to walk down the terminal. I had actually held it together pretty good until, my oldest daughter started crying, well that's when I lost it.
I got to hear from my wife a couple of times today, mainly just to say that she had arrived safely, and everything was ok.
The girls had a fairly normal day for the most part at school. After I picked them up this afternoon, we ate super with my folks and they brought over some Valentines gifts for the girls. I gave my Valentines to my wife yesterday on the 12th and will be giving the girls their Valentines in the morning.
As for me, it's been a pretty rough day this first day. Today will be etched in my mind and on my heart forever. Definitely a day I will not forget. I will be counting down the days until I get to see my beautiful wife again and be able to wrap my arms around her. I miss her greatly already! I will miss her and think of her daily. I am very proud of her though.
