Military Spouse Appreciation Day

Last month, we honored our children. This month, we honor the spouses. Today is Military Spouse Appreciation Day and I was going to say some things, but I just can't say it any better than

THIS

So, please go read it and take a moment to think about all the spouses out there, holding down the fort while their loved ones are gone. Our family's separation is coming to an end soon, but there are so many more out there who are at the beginning or in the exhausting middle of their deployment. Think of them. And there are even more families out there clinging to their final days/hours/minutes together right now as they await watching their loved one board a bus or plane and leave them alone to care for their family.

Thank you to all the military spouses. You lot really are an amazing bunch!
