With a heart already broken, I sent Joey off to War. He was brave, cute as hell, and took the realness of home to my Love! Before Rich left he gave me Jack. Jack was big and brawny, but way too much fluff for my taste. Jack ended up in the floor - sorry Jack! (He's still on the floor)
Along the ways of deployment, my Love sent Ben to me. Although Ben was just the right size and the perfect 'touch', he just never measured up to my Joey! Ben ended up perched on the headboard watching over me as I slept restlessly.
This week I received a box from my Love. Amid the tshirts, trinkets, and letters he had received over the past several months... I found Joey! Joey had served my Soldier well and his mission was complete. Although he won't accompany his unit home, Joey has served Rich well, and will be waiting at home for his return! After a much needed shower and a good drying out....Joey will be back on duty keeping me safe and comforted!
I will be more than excited once my Love, my Soldier, my Best Friend in the entire World, returns home to join me & Joey!!
