All my thoughts and prayers

Are with the 2 Navy families whose sailors are missing somewhere in the wilds of Afghanistan right now.
While my husband is sitting across the table from me right now and I know he's safe, a part of me feels the dread that these families must be feeling. It is all of our worst fears realized and on some level when it happens to one of us, it happens to all of us.
My husband thinks I am being a bit needy, but I hugged him a bit tighter today, grateful that he is okay and I know where he is. Even though I know he is going to be perfectly safe at his next duty station, I have to admit that knowing he is leaving next weekend heightens my concern over him. I love him so damn much, I can't help it, but I am glad I have gotten 2 weeks with him to build the memories that will carry us for the next six months, maybe longer until we can see each other again.
And my cousin, who is also Navy will be coming home safely tomorrow to his family.
I have a lot to be grateful for today.
I hope with all my hear and all my soul that our missing sailors will come home safe to their families too and until they do, they will be in all my thoughts and all my prayers.
