Being a military wife gives me a double sense of great pride and honor.  I first feel proud to have married such a wonderful, gorgeous man with such a good heart and values who understands and accepts the responsibility of a family so readily.  These qualities alone would be enough to stay in his corner for the rest of my life, but adding to this is the sense of pride I have in him for being altruistic. It takes someone very, special willing to make the kind of every day sacrifices for his country, particularly when many have no idea just how far reaching those sacrifices can be.  I'm glad my husband come back home safe after his turn in Iraq.
