[quote=Anonymous]We have five. All grown now. My DH was deployed a lot. My kids grew up on military posts all over the world. My dad was military so I did the same. My DH deployed two weeks after my youngest was born. How do we do it? You just do. We had a huge support system on post. There were tons of kids around for my kids to play with. You develop close friendships and help each other when things are tough. You might be surprised by the things you can do when you have no choice. I’m grateful my kids grew up living all over the world. That is an education that simply cannot be replicated. I’m grateful we lived in supportive communities. I’m also very aware that my DH’s rank influenced our experience. It’s typically much harder on enlisted families. [/quote]
