Phone Calls & Sweet Smiles

Yesterday I got the best surprise I've received so far. I received a phone call from Joe! Now before you go and get as excited as I am I have to tell you that the circumstances in which I got the phone call were unfortunate. However, Joe is almost done with basic training and will be graduating on time with his classmates. 

Just hearing his voice last night makes me that much more anxious to see him again. It is soooo close. We leave in 10 days to make the 13 hour trip to South Carolina, I have 11 days until I see his smiling face, and in just 12 days he will officially be a United States soldier. 

I am so very proud of Joe. When I think of all of the tears I've shed over the time he's spent away my pride in him and in what he's doing overshadows any of the pain that I've felt. We still have 16 weeks to go after he graduates from BCT before he comes home, but I know that if it's anything like the time he's been at basic it will go by quickly. Plus, I get to talk to him more frequently than I did while he was training in SC, so that makes it even easier. ☺

I love my man more than anything in the world.

2 Weeks!

I'm a very excited girl right now. I have two weeks until I get to see my man again. 
I am traveling down to Fort Jackson so I can see Joe graduate from basic training, and I couldn't be more ecstatic. 

May 8th is family day and then May 9th is the day of his graduation. After his graduation he ships off to Fort Leonard Wood where he wil spend the next 16 weeks there for AIT. I am ridiculously proud of Joe. He has already come so far with all of this.

I will say, though, that I am a tad bit nervous about traveling down with his family. I think they're all wonderful people, and I truly enjoy their company, but I'm slightly scared that the close quarters for 4 days will drive them, or myself for that matter, crazy. If there is one thing I want to avoid it's Joe's family not liking me. 
 :P

Oh, and a further update on the dress situation...
I found three dresses. I'm going to take two of them down to SC with us, and then I will leave the 3rd (and nicest one) home for when he returns from AIT in September. 

Having Joe gone has taught me a lot. I can be independent while being in a relationship. I think that's one of the things that has been my problem in past relationships. I always lose myself within the relationship. I lose my independent nature. But that's not the case with this one; especially now that he's in the Army NG.

Day 56 -- "6 Months"

Day 56


Hey Monday - "6 Months"


Lyrics:

"You're the direction I follow to get home
When I feel like I can't go on, you tell me to go
And it's like I can't feel a thing without you around
And don't mind me if I get weak in the knees
'cause you have that effect on me, you do

Everything you say
Every time we kiss, I can't think straight
But I'm okay
And I can't think of anybody else
Who I hate to miss as much as I hate missing you

Months going strong now, and no goodbye
Unconditional, unoriginal
Always by my side
Meant to be together
Meant for no one but each other
You love me, I love you harder so

Everything you say
Every time we kiss, I can't think straight
But I'm okay
And I can't think of anybody else
Who I hate to miss as much as I hate missing you

So please, give me your hands
So please, give me a lesson on how to steal, steal a heart
As fast as you stole mine, as you stole mine

Oh and everything you say
Every time we kiss, I can't think straight
But I'm okay
And I can't think of anybody else
Who I hate to miss as much as I hate missing you

So please, give me your hands
So please, just take my hand.
"

Megan

Day 55 -- "Like I Am"

Day 55

I swear every day I feel like I find a song that I wish I had written because it's exactly how I feel.
I hope you all enjoy this song as much as I do. 

Rascal Flatts - "Like I Am"

Lyrics:

"Lying here with you 
I watch you while you sleep 
The dawn is closing in 
With every breath you breathe 

I can feel the change 
The change you`ve made in me 
But will I ever see 
All the things you see in me 

When you say that I`m one of a kind 
Baby, I don`t see it but you believe 
That I`m so strong and true, I promise you 
I`ll try to be that kind of man 
Because you love me like I am 

When it comes to love 
I may not know the rules 
But there`s one thing I know 
My heart belongs to you, just you 

(Repeat Chorus) 

You show me you love me 
With a fire that burns deep inside 

(Repeat Chorus Twice) 

- I am 
I`ll never understand 
I don`t think I`ll ever understand 
Why you love me 
Why you love me just like I am."

Day 54 - "Here By Me"

Day 54

Today I have chosen a song by one of my favorite bands.

I get to see Joe in a little over two weeks now. I'm so unbelievably happy. I went to Things Remembered on Friday and ordered him a present for his graduation. I'm pretty sure I sold my left leg for it. I can't quite remember...

Anyways, here is the song. Enjoy, friends! 

3 Doors Down - "Here By Me"
