Military Childrn

April is the Month of the Military Child. Deployments and serving in the military is tough on the service member and the spouse, but it's equally as hard (if not harder) on the service member's children. The military life is a life of frequent moves, changing schools, new houses, leaving friends and meeting new ones. Although T and S are not in school and probably won't remember too much of San Diego Mr has been gone one whole year out of T's 3 years. That is a lot already...for 3 short years and to have 1 whole year gone. Now T won't remember any of that because he was too little, but the Mr sure does. He missed everything: Crawling, first foods, first words, standing, walking. Imagine leaving for deployment with your baby not even crawling yet and than coming home from deployment and having your little guy walk down the pier to you, cause that's exactly how it happened. This will be Mr's first deployment since S was born. I am so glad he was home for all of her firsts. and hopefully this will be his last deployment for awhile....anyways my point of this was that our children serve right along with Mr. Military children might need more support, guidance, and comfort than civilian children. They go from having both parents to one parent in a day. April is the month for military children so if you know any let them know how much you are proud of them for serving our country too!
