Stay Positive

When I returned from the hospital with my latest child the only thing I could think of was my pastors words “God give you strength each and every day to deal with anything the world may throw at you” well this day I was returning to an empty home, no friends or family, just me and the girls. I thought to myself “ this should be a joyest occasion and I should be sorronded by friends” then I felt the tears building up and I forced myself to smile. I decided in that moment I could pitty myself or I could be positive. I began to think of all that I have to be greatful for. After all I was returning home with a beautiful HEALTY baby girl, and I was surrounded by two people who love more the then anyone else I could think of. My girls! I know it was God who helped me get through this day and I hope that you turn to him in your times of weakness.

I leave you today with this verse from your bible “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” - Deuteronomy 31:6

Have Faith

For some of us this is the very first deployment while others are use to the routine. Our men are packed up and shipped out leaving us to deal…

We all can or will be able to relate to the loneliness, frustration and overwhelmed feelings of having our families divided. I am a 24 year old mother of 3. My oldest is 4 then there is my 18 month old and the latest addition is only one month. To top it off we are stationed in a small town with no family and very few friends. So I do understand all the feelings that come with the territory, and my hope is this blog will help inspire many of you, because you are not alone. No matter the task we can not only get through this, but we can do it with a smile across our faces. I’m not saying it will be easy but with a little positivity, a bible and a lot of faith nothings impossible.
