You stand there proud. Many things running through your mind. Trying to stay strong for him, you know he doesn't like to see you cry. Your heart is pounding through your chest, breaking but swelling with pride at the same time. Telling your self it's not that long, I'll get by. You give that final hug and here they comes, the tears your swore you wouldn't cry. Walking away wiping your eyes knowing you'll never get used to a military goodbye.
I dont think it ever gets easier. I believe its a minds natural defense to push the negative feelings out. You become numb life goes on. My daughters dont stop needing me because mommy misses daddy today. I push on knowing one more day i make it through and one more day until we say hello again!
