Thank You Veterans

A big thank you to all of our veterans and service members supporting our wonderful country. I know I've learned a lot through Drew's involvement in the military and deployment to Iraq. I am so proud to call him my husband. I think the hardest thing about being an "Army wife" or a family member of a service member is never being able to fully understand the things Drew goes through, and or does for our freedom. I will never be able to relate to boot camp or his time overseas, or ever fully imagine the people he worked with and or met during his deployment. But, I do know I can make up for that through showing my support and willingness to try and understand. And, speaking of Drew, it's hard to believe, but as of the 9th, he has been in the military for 10 years! What an accomplishment. Other than school, I have never been a part of something for 10 years. I know I talked about it months ago, but next weekend he will officially be a Captain. His promotion ceremony is set for Saturday! This will be my first promotion to attend, so I'll give you an update next weekend.
