FK&GH ( I Know Now)

I have been with my man for 4 years now. We have one child together and help raise our others together.

In all we have 3 boys. 3, 6, and 13. I am 25 and he is 38. I know what a age difference but it works. (most of the time).

I attend school full time for business management. Well my man was just hired for Western Express and will be OTR 2 week or more at a time. Im happy that he finally has a job that he loves and is able to truck again.

Its always been in his veins and I know that but its just hard. He is my rock. I know that he is doing this job that he loves to provide for our family but its just hard to picture him not being there. He leaves out this Sunday. I am just sad that he is going.

We have been threw this before but he was gone for 2-3 days at a time come home for a day then he was gone again. Then there were times that I thought that maybe he was messing with those nasty LOT LIZARDS and we had a lot of problems before.

Even though he wasn't I still thought that maybe. Hes a guy what guy wouldn't want to get some from some girl throwing it at him. Well thankfully mine wasn't that guy. So this go around I just have to keep a positive attitude and tell myself that its all going to be ok.

I know that he loves me and that this time will be different. I have to look at the positives and avoid all the negatives. I just have to trust him. So when he was hired today I searched the web just playing around and found this website.

I read that tribute to us truck drivers wives and it put it all in another perspective for me. I see now that he misses me just as much as I miss him. I see now that he would rather be home with me (most days) then be OTR.

I see now that he has the same fears and worries as I do. But I know now that the love we have for each other is real and that Now we can make it threw anything.

Like I said he is doing it for our family. He says that being OTR gets to you but you just have to suck it up and actually look around and be thankful to be able to have a job that supports you and your family and also get the benefits of seeing the sights of this beautiful country that most people dream of seeing.

He is the best thing that has ever happened to me and I am so thankful for all he does and sacrifices for our family. I am sad to see him go but ladies we all know that makes it that much better when our men come back in. ;)

I LOVE YOU BABY AND I PRAY THAT YOU ALWAYS HAVE A SAFE DRIVE AND MAKE IT BACK HOME TO ME!!X0X0X0. I PRAY THAT ALL THE TRUCKERS MAKE IT HOME SAFE TO ALL OF YOU AND YOUR FAMILES AS WELL. I am so happy I found this web site.
