My first blog...

I know you know it’s no secret the way I feel
I won’t let go, there’s something in your touch
I thought I’d never find something in your kiss
Brought me back to life

This woman’s heart beats steady and strong
And keeps holding on, I’ll give my all to stand by your side
For the rest of my life it’s true only for you
From this moment on I give you this woman’s heart

Don’t be afraid you can count on a love that’s real
Each step we take I’ll be by your side
And we’ll build our world together, put your faith in me
I promise that forever

This woman’s heart beats steady and strong
And keeps holding on, I’ll give my all to stand by your side
For the rest of my life it’s true only for you
From this moment on I give you this woman’s heart

This woman’s heart beats steady and strong
And keeps holding on, I’ll give my all to stand by your side
For the rest of my life it’s true only for you
From this moment on I give you this woman’s heart


These were the lyrics that rang out into world as I walked down the aisle to marry my wonderful husband. I am dedicating this blog to our life together as best friends and parents; and our life apart as he serves our nation's armed forces in Afghanistan and I hold down the fort here at home with another baby on the way. At the time, I felt these lyrics expressed how I felt about my husband, Beau, better than any words I could ever write. Over the last four years of meshing our lives, sharing memories and making new ones, they still ring true. Maybe even truer as I go through a lot of "firsts" as an Army wife while he is deployed. The first time moving without him, going through this pregnancy without him, probably delivering our first baby girl together without him. I know I am not the first woman to travel this road, but this is my personal experience and I want to share it with my family, friends, and my husband. I guarantee the next year will be quite a journey for this woman's heart.
