Update:
Tom and I had a heart to heart talk today. We discussed marriage and children and he is very receptive to the idea of joining my fire dept as a medic when he returns. I told him to take whatever time he needs to adjust when he returns. He told me he wants me with him the day he returns and everyday after that. I can't go a day without thinking about him and I can seriously see myself with this man for the rest of my life.
A little bad news though, he will be sent to a very dangerous area in Iraq (not allowed to discuss any specifics) and I ask for everyone prayers for him and ALL the Troops that are there and in danger day in and day out.
I will talk with y'all later..I am tired and going to bed so I can dream about this wonderful man in my life.
Thanks to everyone for the advice!
