Last night, I received my first phone call from my husband!! He's been in Iraq for two and half months now. It felt so good to hear his voice. We've skyped a lot since he's left despite how terrible his internet can be. Usually his roommate is still sleeping at 6am when we skype. Therefore, he puts on headphones and I talk to him while he types back. There's been a couple of times that his roommate was up or out doing something that he's gotten to talk too. Regardless, I felt like his voice was different. He even said the same to me. I guess skype, with a terrible internet connection, just isn't the same. It caught me off guard and made me a little sad that my own husband's voice seemed kind of foreign to me. But then it made me all the more thankful to be hearing it over the phone. It's amazing the things that I took for granted everyday that are now a cherished luxury.
Love, Heather
