And finally out to sea....
There were other families standing near me, waving off their dads, husbands and sons.
I was not alone, but being a bootneck wife you are never alone - they are a big family.
So many calls have come in during the last 24 hours, I love you all and am so grateful.
On the news yet another soldier has been killed in action, so I lift my chin, pray for his family and am thankful that Adam is not off to war.
My Joy:
Simple.....my husband.
