| Since some of you already know the love of my life was killed in Iraq on January 19th. There are no words that can describe the horrible pain I am going through. I can only hope that none of you will have to experience such pain. Jacob and I were together for seven and a half years and planned to be together till we were old and gray. I met Jacob when we were in Kindergarden. I believe it was a fairy tale in it's own little way. We had those little child like crushes when were in the fifth grade and seventh grade..but finally fell head over heals in love the end of our sophmore year. Jacob volunteered to go to Iraq with a good friend that he had met in Boot Camp about three years ago. They promised each other that whoever had to go first the other would attach themselves to there company and go with there squad. So Jacob being from Austin, Texas flew over to Grand Rapids, Michigan to be with Matthew Teasdale. I begged and pleaded for him not to go..not because I didnt support him mostly because I was scared for him. Jacob wanted to go so bad for the past few years. He believed it was his duty and it drove him literally crazy that he couldnt fight for his country. I will never understand why God took him away. He was the best thing that ever happend to me. I only wish he could have been with me longer. Jacob you're my Hero. I will forever miss you . I love you so much. Please keep our families in your prayers. | | |
| Well I seem to never take the time to write in this thing anymore. I just enjoy reading about what's going on in everyone elses life. Sorry guys. I haven't been able to talk to Jacob much in the past month. They keep moving him around and putting him with other squads and moving him around more. I just hate that so many Marines are getting hurt. Sleep is getting harder..even eating is harder..I'm just completely stressed. So keep praying everyone. I'm really hoping they'll get to come home in April. I made plans to go visit my sister in Germany. So I'm super excited about that. She found out today that she's pregnant again. I know we should all be so happy but I'm pretty bumbed about it. Only because it's just another neice or nephew that I wont get to see. Luckly I found really cheap tickets to go visit her in January....and I'm that much closer to Jacob. If i could go to Iraq i would. :) Well I hope everyone has a safe and good Christmas. Love you babe! cam | | |
| Sorry it's taken me so long to update! I talked to Jacob a few days after i posted my last entry. He is doing okay..I believe he has to go out again tomorrow. I always get worried when I can't talk to him for days...especially when you find out everything they've been through..so, please continue to pray for our troops.. I can finally say that a month has gone by..actually I think its almost been a month and a half. yay! Jacob wants to go to Cancun when he gets home. Ha..I said "Sure, anything you wanna do, that's fine!" Heck yeah i wanna go to Cancun. I've never been so it should be fun. Does anyway have any ideas of things I could send Jacob. I want to send things besides food. I just can't think of anything good. Hope everyone is having a great start to there week! | | |
| it's been a really hard week. I haven't heard from jacob in over a week. i keep getting emails about marines from jacob's platoon who have been killed. i think im about to freak out. i know he is okay. i keep telling myself that. please pray for him and all of those who are away serving. cam | | |
| well...jacob left this past tuesday for iraq...the day he left i almost thought my heart was going to jump out of my body...maybe a panic attack..but i know he's going to be okay..i think it helped that he called me when he got to kuwait..but now he's finally in Iraq and i probably wont hear from him for a few days... at least now i can start counting down the days.... i moved in with one of my good friends and started working full time plus going to school..so maybe i can manage to stay pretty busy.. birthday is next weekend..and it's the first time in 7 years that jacob will have missed it. maybe ill send him something for my birthday :) In bootcamp he celebrated his 21st birthday and the crazy kid sent me a gift..ahh i love him... well hope all of you are well. pray for our men. love you jacob! | | |
