I am so tired...
“I have heard nothing but how I need to be a good military wife. I have gotten no support. My husband hears thank you and has packages sent to him. My children hear thank you and have gifts sent. I have yet to hear thank you. I feel like what I have done in the past 10 months is meaningless. I hear how I have to help my husband. I am so tired. I have not had leave or a day off. The hardest work is ahead of me. I don't know how I will do it. The spouses need more help. They need to hear thank you as well!”

Thankful for my church family
“Yesterday, while the kids and I were in church, someone smashed in the passenger window in our van (in the church parking lot) and stole my purse which had my wallet and cell phone in it and some other medical papers. Friends of ours also had their car window smashed in and their GPS stolen.
It was rather nerve wracking to discover,
For Chaplains
and yesterday, in some ways, feels like a blur to me this morning. However, I woke up so very thankful for my church family who went “into action” yesterday in amazing ways on my behalf while I was stunned and upset and scared, and trying to think through a million things at once and field phone calls to police, Verizon, bank, credit agencies etc… all the while – having no contact with Josiah who was completely unaware and totally unable to help or comfort me.”
