Don’t miss a thing.
Memorial Day Is About Remembering
I’m one of those women who signed up for this. Maybe that’s what you think when you learn that I’m a military spouse. I married my Marine 8 years ago. The truth is, I signed up for love & partnership. I barely considered the struggles of military family life when I got married.
When You Use Deployment Against Your Spouse
Today is the last day I use Ryan’s deployment against him in order to win an argument. It’s a low blow and that’s not how I want to get through our marriage anymore.

Sometimes, I’m glad my sons are young during the height of Ryan’s military career. I tell myself that they won’t remember my panicked calls to my mother begging her to fly across the country to help me.
