There are so many great stories in here from real people that will make you laugh until you cry or cry until you puke. Everyone who has ever experienced the stresses of deploying a husband will find something inside these pages to relate to. ( )

As a new military wife myself and knowing what I've signed up for, I would say this book delivers on bringing stories that warm the heart and spirit. I find this encouraging and found some ideas on various things such as care packages and how to confront children about things regarding the military lifestyle. I rate it 4/5 because I find myself having to put it down because it's saddening, but I find myself wanting and longing to pick it up again once I recovered. I would recommend this not only for military wives, but also for friends and family and the enlisted spouse themselves. I would say this will enlighten civilians who take military families for granted and just does not understand the sacrifices and challenges military families go through. ( )

I recommend this book for any military, military spouses, or just military family members. Heartwarming stories. ( )
