April is the month of the military child. Although, I don’t know what that really means, it is nice to stop and think about our lives.
It Takes A Village
And, there I was…. within a year of my husband taking command of an 1100 Soldier combat arms unit, he was deployed. In my role as the senior spouse, I worked with our rear-detachment to host four unit-wide events that year – the first being a Halloween Trunk or Treat. I met with all six company-level family readiness group (FRG) leaders, explained my concept, and asked my village for their support.
Getting to the Solution
As we all know, most military spouses don’t get emotional (at least not for long) when faced with adversity (no soldier to travel with). We immediately go to the solution. We take it one step at a time, knowing there will be hiccups, but we persevere.
