Patience.

I have had to learn the true meaning of patience over the past couple of weeks. Steven has a great job, but has ended up having to travel quite a bit. I don't like being home by myself. I don't like the feeling of sending him off. BUT, I know he is loving this way more than sitting behind a desk and this is what he wants to do.

It is funny. I thought I'd be more upset about him traveling so soon after we got married, but it's like we are dating again... not seeing other every day.

I keep thinking... If I can only make it through the next 4 business trips.... but, there is a great chance he'll have to travel for an extended period of time as least 2 more times...

I've learned that I have to be patient with him and his career path. I've learned that distance really does make the heart grow fonder... funny because you'd think after 5 1/2 years of long distance I'd have learned this already.
