My fiance is currently serving in Iraq. He's been there since March and will be home next weekend. The way we have been keeping it going is through emails,letters, and phone calls mostly. Also, I have been sending him care packages once a month, with some of his favorite things or something I know he'd like inside. One time I sent him a package with a letter, pictures, a book, and a dvd set of one of his favorite shows (i knew he had his laptop that i sent to him so he could watch them). I just did my best to keep him encouraged. He told me that he appreciated all of it. It's just a way to show him you love him and are thinking of him.

"Keep the home fires burning" as the saying goes. Write to him often, or if it's possible to e-mail, do that. Take care of the domestic business, keeping the bills paid, making sure everything remains copasetic, and letting him know often that he is loved and missed. You do everything your common sense tells you is right and proper, and the rest will fall into place. You give him courage and strength to do the job that he is doing there, when he can feel sure that you are doing your part back home.

Letters.
Love letters every day. don't miss a single day. And put yourself in your letters. Imagine and live that letter and spell the words wrong if you like, so long as you leave him with happiness and with longing for you two to be together again.
relive the good and best moments. Love in afar.
Pray and with energy and life and with power and that God would give you that understanding that he lives through today. Understand and sacrifice for the greater good..
Love him.

Letters, packages,e-mails..Make sure when you talk on the phone try to include him on things you are doing and making plans for when he returns. Thats what I am doing right now, I am staying positive and strong for him because I know he depends on me!

Buy him a portable DVD player and send it to him. Make videos of you and the family, in addition to writing letters. Also send DVDs to him of movies as they come out. And, don't forget to keep sending batteries for the DVD player if it needs them.

Keep the lines of communication open and don't hang out with the other wives that hang out in clubs!
