Well, I'm not sure if either one of us can believe it, but it's true...Greg's officially a Lt. Col!!!! I believe in him and I believe he has what it takes and I'm oh, so proud of him! I think I just can't believe he's this far in his military career and that he's old enough to be a LT . COl! There...I said it! Are we really old enough for this? When we married almost 11 years ago, I remember thinking the Lt. Col's were old and mature and their wives were too! So, what does that make us? Don't answer that question! On a serious note. I am very proud of Greg. Through the years, he has faithfully served his country and given of his time and efforts in so many ways. He is humble and wouldn't say this, but I can brag...he's good at what he does!
This journey has been a lot of things. It's been happy, sad, tiring, exhilarating, fun, not so fun. We have been stationed in Washington, Florida, Arkansas, Korea, and now Illinois. We've always tried to have the motto of "home is where-ever the military sends us." It's been fun of explorations for this south Georgia girl that never planned on leaving her hometown. We've made some incredible and lasting friendships over the years as we've moved around. We have seen the hand of God in our lives and know that even when we don't understand his plan, we can trust in Him.
I am honored to be the wife of Lt. Col Bailey and to stand by his side as he serves God and our country, the good ole' USA!!
