Sorry, it's been a long time since I've been a'blogging. One more deployment under our belts, and I'm in much greater need of "Mommy Motivation" than ever before.
How do I stay motivated and on track? Some days it's more difficult than others. Today I'm relaxing, reading a good book, walking on the treadmill, cooking some good food for the family. Hubby has been home for not yet two weeks, and I've had a really bad cold the entire time. SLEEP is important now, too. ;)
Along those lines I'll leave you with a poem:
Author Unknown
The backbone of the home you see.
That's what the military wife is to me.
Guarding the fort while her husband's away,
Defending and protecting his country each day.Though many forget the importance of her role in his life,
Please, Sir, don't forget the military wife.
The woman who primarily raises her children alone,
The one who strives to make a "house", a home.The one who sacrifices the time she could share,
The one who has many responsibilities to bear.
The woman who is married to a protector of the world,
The one whose life stays fairly unfurled.I say again, kind Sir, don't forget the role
she plays in his life.
Yes, dear Sir, the military wife.
The woman who stands by her husband's side,
The one who takes life stride by stride.The woman who wonders when he's far away,
The one who prays for his safety
and sends tender love his way.
Next time you look into a soldier's eyes,
Think of the one who stands by his side.The one left behind, the encouragement in his life.....
The woman who's called the MILITARY WIFE.
