So this week I came back to IL alone to meet with some friends and then work this week. I was not ready for the pain of separation to come back. I find myself still longing for her and unable to really concentrate.
I miss her voice and laugh and mere presence. When I watch TV shows they are not as enjoyable because we can't pause and talk about them. When out eating I feel out of place because I am so used to her being with me. Even in church I felt alone even though I was with my family. My hand kept searching for hers.
The one thing it has taught me is that she is a crucial part of my life. She is also a key to my happiness. I can't wait till I get back so I can hold her again.
I love you my Wife!
