Your Inspiring Military Family

By elaine | May 25, 2011

I think I’m going to really like this series of blog posts these coming weeks. Every time I read a card that has the thoughts of a military family written on it, I get chills. The intensity, emotion and support for each other show through every word. I hope that someone’s words will affect you at a time when you need to hear them and that they make you smile…and be thankful that you’re a part of the extended military world. Here are my favorites for today:

  “I feel that I am helping my country by being a support to my soldier, and helping her by knowing that her son is being cared for which gives you peace of mind.” – Cynthia

 

There is no better gift to give a soldier than helping to care for their children left behind during deployments. Blessings go out to the grandparents, neighbors, teachers and child caregivers who step up to fill this important void.

“A military family is just that – an extended family. We do activities together and are there for one another. People who are involved in the military understand the trials, tribulations, and good that come from it.” – Jaime

It’s the connection of everyone in the military that creates that family. Many say it’s a warm and comforting feeling knowing that they are a part of a community of common experiences, and they can share with each other because they say “I know what you’re going through”…and truly mean it. Thank you to all military families for being so special.
