Experience
The Best is Yet to Come for Army Wife Network…..Stay Tuned!
To Our Dearest Army Wife Network Tribe:
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been what you might call an “anticipator.” Looking forward to the next experience, event, or adventure was my jam.
A Military Life in Christmas Carols
There are traditional Christmas carols, and then there are military life Christmas carols. Enjoy this fun twist that applies to our every day circumstances as servicemembers, milspouses, and military brats!
It’s All About Perspective
“You’re going to have good things and bad things that happen throughout any day, but that’s life.” Kyle, my husband said.
Spoken from a true man who is a master at compartmentalizing. I wonder if this is something Soldiers learn in the Army or is this just a superpower that all men have? Either way, he’s not wrong, and it did put this experience of surviving cancer in a clearer perspective.

3 Step Contentment
What a time of the year to utter the word “contentment” when we are inundated with things to buy, places to go, people to see, keeping up with the latest trends, trying to fulfill items on our loved one’s gift lists. All this while managing our own list of demands that is neverending.

Dear Military NICU Mom
Dear Military NICU Mom, I see you. I see that your minutes feel like days and that your world is falling apart around you. I see that you feel crushed by the weight of the unknowns and are full of fear, anger, sadness, isolation, and anticipation.

Being proud of my husband and family is something that came naturally. The idea of being proud of him as a soldier was entirely separate. But the feeling of being a proud soldier’s wife, was something that took a deep understanding and gradual development. I came to this realization and appreciation at the start of good ole 2020.
