My husband and my brother both served in the Marine Corps so I know what life as a military spouse is like. My dad also retired from the Navy after 30 years so I have also experienced military life through a child's eyes. I am hoping (and praying) that my son finds what he is looking for since this is obviously what he wants to do. I am not thrilled but I will be supportive. I keep telling myself that many other mothers are going through or have gone through this and if they can do it, so can I. No grandchildren as of yet.
