My husband of 7 years is working to become one of the fine men of LAFD, it's the first thing in a long time that he has really wanted & been excited about; for me not so much, I believe in being a supportive wife so I have been trying to "fake it till I make it" in terms of REALLY wanting this for him; I do all of the wifely supportive things, works of encouragement, helping schudle EMT classess, smiling and telling him that I am happy for him and proud of him (which is 100% true).
For me this means a move 500 miles, leaving my job that I LOVE which I have invested 2 masters degrees to get, and being ALONE with our 3 kids under 4 years old AT LEAST 12 days a month. I am terrified that this is a sentance to a lonely life, with no friends and an absentee husband.
I am so proud to have a husband that wants to be of service, I want my support to be whole hearted.
Is this the way the life of a firefighter wife is?
What are the pro's/ con's?
Are you happy? your children?
