And sometimes hard. Last night Corey's squadron had sort of an open house where family members could go and voice any concerns, questions and/or comment on anything that has been going on (good or bad). Afterwards, we were given a tour of his shop.I was pretty impressed. My eyes were really opened and I think I owe Corey an apology.
Since moving to Germany, Corey has been pretty much the "go-to-guy" when something needs to be done. He'll sometimes come home starving because he was in a meeting during lunch time and didn't get a chance to eat. Someone from his job will call him in the evenings looking for answers to a problem. Me being me, always asks "So, why are they calling you? You just got here. You don't know everything". And he'll jokingly say "Cuz I run things round these parts" or something to that affect.
Last night I got to see what he does and see that he really is in charge of a lot of things that go on in his shop. For some reason, I was really proud of him. I wanted to stick my chest out and say "yeah, that's MY man". LOL
Going to the open house has opened my eyes in a lot of ways. I mean, I know he is sacrificing a lot by being in the military but I will no longer take that for granted. A big standing ovations for all the men and women of the Armed Forces for risking their lives to keep us safe.

I do the same thing to my guy... We always get the phone calls and I always say something about it... He laughs. Lol, anyway, that really must have been nice to see things through your DH's eyes and to be able to be very proud of him! :-)
Go Air Force :-)
