Days Go Bye

Wake up to a smile, a hug, and a toot.
Breakfast, always the same.

Go about our play as we did before.
Legos, cars, and Thomas the Train.

A snack here, a drink there, a spank with a wooden spoon,
Daytime goes by each day with Mommy waiting for the moon.

Boys in the bath, boys in the bed, Mommy comes down the stairs.
Wishing for the love of her life to be here. He's always in her prayers.

All day waiting for night, and all night wishing for day.
365 of these without him, wish there was another way.

Our love for our country, and a job to be done, this is where we have been called.
Although it is hard, we will get through it, even though it seems really hard.

God will protect Daddy, He promised me this**, just listen to His voice.
Before we know it, we will be united again. And again this was our choice.

Days go Bye, day in and day out, in frenzy or calm like the sea.
I get through each one, because I know, that Cliff and God both love me.

**When Cliff and I were praying about whether to get out of the Army, or stay in, I came across a verse in prayer- Proverbs 1:33 (and 33 is the number of our MOS when we came in the Army)
"but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm." This is a promise I live by, because He who promised is faithful. Hebrews 10:23
