I know that I am always talking about appreciating our soldiers. You are probably getting bored with this by now. I think I might take a break from this and talk about what my experience with the Army has been. Maybe then you will have a better understanding of why I feel the way I feel. My stepdad...

Simple Thank You
I didn't really have a lot to contribute to this blog today, but I thought I would take a quick time out from my day and say thank you to all of our soldiers.

Military Spouses
