I get so scared

My husband is on a large fire right now and I am just having
those horrible feelings. I'm sure you know
what I mean.
I get so scared for him although I know he is not for himself.

We have three children and we have had the conversations
about who would
get what. And I hate that at 24 we are having
to talk like that already. I
understand he loves what he
does and I do support that but I am a nervous
wreck! How
have you got through all these years? I love him so much and
yet I feel as though it is work to be with him. Is that because
of the
profession? I blame his job for a lot and yet I am so proud
of him. I tell
everyone I meet that I am the wife of a wildland
firefighter. I really
couldnt imagine him doing anything
else, he is a real hero! Well thank you
for letting me write
because I know you will understand!

Vanessa,
I can totally agree with you and your fears. I think we all share those thoughts. I have posted a blog back in May about this. You should check it out. I will also send you a special email. Prayers for your feelings.
With Love,
Hotshot Wife
