We've Known Each Other That Long...

As the week hurtles toward Saturday and my law school graduation ceremony, I am taking stock of the past two years and thought it might be fun if you did too...

AFW and I realized while we were sitting on her living room couch that she's now known me long enough to see me start something huge like this and finish it.

When I thought about it, I could see that SpouseBuzz has afforded me lots of opportunities to meet other milspouses who have passed major milestones in their lives.  I've observed quite a few deployments from beginning to almost end.  I've watched as babies come into homes full of love (and secretly wished I lived closer so I could hold them!).  I've witnessed people begin their milspouse journey from scratch as well as learned from those more seasoned than I.  And, we've even shared some sad times--like the passing of some of our favorite furry friends.

The good thing about a place like SpouseBuzz is that the cycle of experience is unending and ongoing.  Just as I'm ending this journey through school and figuring out what I'll be doing next, I look around and see that many of my fellow authors are embarking on big, new adventures that I can experience vicariously.  I know readers, at any time, can be in the same boat as any of the authors or other readers.

Thanks so much for being a part of the memories I will attach to this part of my life. 

Why not take a minute in comments to give a shout out to someone or something that SpouseBuzz has brought into your life and attached to your memories?

You were all there for me when I got pregnant, and there for me again when we lost the baby. I know you'll be here to help me through it the next time too.

You helped me through the Surge extension of the unit, through the funerals, through the homecoming and PCS. congrats on the law school graduation - when you need an experienced paralegal, let me know!

My shout out is to Butterfly Wife, whom I found here (or rather, she found me, if I recall correctly). I have found so many "friends" through this place.

Also - thanks for the wonderful contests (and prizes!), and the camaraderie that can be found. I know that everyone here has or will experience much of what I do, and it's nice to know I'm never alone in this endeavor as a milspouse!

I love that there is always something on here to lift my spirits, even when I don't want them to be. I am looking forward to meeting some of the ladies that I have connected too through here!!!
