Supporting the Troops

That's right....I got a tattoo! I went and got it about 4 days after he left Fargo. I had been thinking about it for over a year and decided I couldn't wait to do it. Dane didn't think I could handle the pain so when it hurt I kept telling myself I had to go through with it or I would prove him right! It only took 15 minutes from start to finish!

This tattoo means so many things to me. First, that I support Dane and all he does in the military. Second, this time in our relationship. I am thinking about him everyday and counting down the days(305), hours(8), and minutes(22) until he comes home to me, our families and friends!

I have been able to talk to him a few times over the last few weeks. They are back into training and preparing for Kosovo. Dane said that they are busy and the days are going by faster now. They are training for riots, checkpoints, and other police type work. He likes to call it "playing army."

Last time we talked he had his Kosovo address for me so here it is! (don't send anything until November or someone else may enjoy your card, letter, or treat!)
