my favorite quote:

"The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!"
- Eleanor Roosevelt, First Lady of the United States, 1945

[THE NEW ME MICHELLE AKA DIVA!]

*song* Come home soon by Shedaisey!

*quote* Remember he's thinking of you everyday, he's sad and lonely from being away. So love him, miss him, and cherish your dreams, and always be proud to love your marine!

*quote* Missing someone gets easier everyday because even though you are one day further from the last time you saw them, you are one day closer to the next time you will.

*prayer* Lord, grant me the greatness to see
The difference in duty and his love for me
Give me the understanding to know
That when duty calls he must go
Give me a task to do each day
To fill the time when he is away
And Lord, when duty is in the field
Please protect him and be his shield

the song "hold me like you mean it" by John milstead is My FAVVEEEEEE
and "Live our dream" by Tyler T Toliver (he's a marine) that was really good.

but me and my fiancee's song is "Whatever it is" lol he used to sing it to me right before I went to bed...that and "For a soldier who was far, far away" Its a cadence but he's always singing it.

when I had my wedding shower... a friend of the family that I didn't even know found me a little wooden sign that said "a true soldier fights not because he hates whats in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him".... I sat there in front of all my family and friends and just cried once I saw it!
