Military Spouse and Mother's Day

I think this weekend was a time to reflect on how important we are to our families and the military. So often I forget that I am the sole constant in my family or the tie that binds us all together. Things that I do with joy and sometimes resentment make a difference and are important. I almost wish that military spouse day and mother's day were separated by a few months. I wish that military spouses and mothers would realize that critical role that we play not just one weekend a year... but carry our pride through the other 50 weeks each year.

Our selfless service is unmatched. You volunteer to support our nation and service members with pride and grace. You sacrifice, scrimp, are creative, and make things work seamlessly. Hold your head high, not just on spouse day, or mother's day... but every day.

You are a remarkable, courageous, resourceful person... we are what makes our nations military the best in the world. Stand tall today and everyday.
