So I am a Military Brat and proud of it. My dad was apart of the Marine Corps for 20 years. I don't think I have ever told him. But I am proud, that my dad served for this country.
There was a video that went around on Facebook about children and family reunited with their loved ones who serve for this country. It was 10 minutes long. I started crying after minute 2. Emotional yes. But I mean if you haven't seen your daddy or husband in such a long time and then you see them, safe ok and in your arms you have no choice but to cry.
I was just grateful that my dad never had to go overseas without us, or leave us for a long time. At least from what I remembered.
Anytime I see people doing anything great for the children of these service men and women or even for their families. It touches my heart and I can't do anything but smile and cry.
I watched Hannah Montanna, yes I watch Hannah Montanna, but it was an episode about how she skipped out hanging out with her dad to go out on a date with a cute guy. While on their date this guy talked to his dad who was overseas. It got Miley thinking that she takes her dad for granted, then she decides to do a concert for the servicemen and servicewomen and their families. It made me cry, yes it did. They also had some of the families say a message to their loved ones.
I hope and pray that you would continue to keep them in your prayers and thoughts. Especially their families and friends.
Semper Fi to my fellow military brats out there.
