My favorite people

I just wanted to take a minute or two to say a few words about the people who are such a great support to me right now. The ladies at Christian Military Wives are just the best. They give me strength when i feel i have run out of it. They offer me prayers. I pray for them. We support each other in ways i have never experienced any where else. Not all of us have husbands who are deployed. Some have husbands who just returned from over there. Some have husbands who have never been over there. But they will eventually. Some have husbands who have been injured over there. Some are active duty and others are reserve or guard. They are not all Army. Some are Marines, some Navy, and some Air Force. There may even be some Coast Guard. But branch of service doesnt matter. What matters is that there isn't any arguing or negativity. You can talk about what is going on with you and they don't judge, they support. If you are having a bad day, no one tells you to suck it up because this is what you do....instead they offer to pray for you because they have bad days too and they know how it feels to just simply miss your heart when he's gone. I go visit the board several times a day just to see what's new. I find myself going there now to see if there is anything i can say or do for another to offer them support. When i first started going there it was more selfish....i needed them. Now while i still need them, i find that i can have a much better day when i can support someone else. If you want to check it out....if you havent already......there is a link to the right over there to the right.....the one that says Christian Military Wife Support . And if you are one of the Awesome ladies on that board....thank you so much for giving to me! I hope i can do at least 1/2 as much for you. I want to do twice as much for you...but you all are so wonderful i don't know that i can possibly equal that! You all are really the best!

It really is a very unique and special site. I have no doubt that it's a blessed effort... and the ladies there are all blessings to one another.
