You know your a firefighters wife when..........
Your Husband's wardrobe looks like this: non-descript bottoms paired with any navy blue shirt/sweatshirt with a fire department logo on it.
Your Husband's haircut is "nice and tight". So are his buns.
You know the difference between a police siren and a fire siren.
Your kids think the fire station is "Daddy's house".
You've received more dalmation-themed collectibles than you thought humanly possible.
You know that all of your smoke detectors work.
Your Husband will not let you near the BBQ.
You can make 4 dozen cookies without a recipe in 1.5 hours flat and have them delivered asap.
You know that you always have a team of highly-trained ems professionals at the ready (you know, in case a baby falls down the stairs or something).
You know that it is faster and waaaay better to take the ambulance to the hospital (NEVER go it solo, and actually WAIT in the waiting room!).
Your single friends are always aksing "are there any single firemen at Hubby's work?".
Your children can make good use of vaccuum hoses and rubber gloves.
Everybody knows a Firefighter, and will asume that you know them too.
You find it hard to sleep when your Hubby is at work.
You get severly angry when people don't pull over for firetrucks and ambulances.
You've held more birthdays at the fire station than should be allowed.
You get to listen to stories about fires, mva's, and sprinkler systems, and ems calls
You've seen Backdraft 40 million times and Ladder 49 10 million (but who can get sick of staring at Joaquin Phoenix and John Travolta?).
You've had some of the best holiday meals at the fire station.
You've lost all sense of what a "weekend" really is due to your husband's crazy schedule.
Your husband gets to go on field trips & preschool once in a while.
All of the teachers want your husband to "demonstrate" his skills for the class (yeah, right she just wants to see him in his bunker gear).

Your kids dont know yesterday and tom, only "last day and next day"
At your baby shower at least half the presents are fire related even if your having a girl.
Your kids are the only ones at school with 12 uncles, and they think every kid they know is their cousin.
If daddys not home ask the kids where he is and your bond to hear "fire house" even if thats not where he really is!
You feel like the luckiest girl alive when he comes home off shift and sends your heart a-flutter
