Your dreams are beautiful jstewart!! Your husabnd will not look at you any different when he comes home from Iraq. I felt the same as you did when my dh was stationed in San Diego and I was still in Pensacola while we were dating. But, I soon realized that just being able to hold me and see me is what made him the happiest. It's times like these when a person in love looks beyond physical and clings tight to the spirit of whom they love. After all, while your dh is away, he is thinking of how wonderful of a person you are, and how lucky he is to have you...not how much you weigh right now
Your dreams of being a mother are sweet as well. God has plans for you. Just be patient...that's what I keep telling myself. When you do become a mother, I have a feeling you are going to be a wonderful mom!!
((hugs)) to you!!!
