No walk in the park…

How I’ve been feeling…

These are some of the hardest days about being a military family....

My husband left on DET (detachment). It’s only for a few and even though its only for a little but of time it seems like forever.

People think it’s nothing but when your other half leaves and then comes back and then has to leave again in a month, but in reality it’s definitely not—easy especially for the kids.

The kids and I already have an established routine and yes, at first it is hard to get into it but then it undoubtably feels like the moment we start to get comfortable, my husband comes back and everything we just worked on goes out the window again.

I sit here fighting back tears knowing that the constant changes are the roughest on the children. I sometimes wish my husband went on deployments instead of 2 to 3 weeks detachments. It sounds “crazy” right? I know. My heart knows. But my head understands that at least we would be set for more than one month here and there.

Right now, it’s especially difficult adding in the stresses of dealing with C0VID. We are going threw a weird time where our kids can’t really go outside and play with friends. Trying to keep my kids entertained inside has been a challenge. So you can imagine what they go threw.

This mamma is strong. I am stronger than military detachments and ever changing routines. We manage by doing activities at home, watching movies, or even just do something as simple as going to get fast food and sitting in the car by the beach just to enjoy the view of the ocean.

So that being said, I just wanted to shed a little light on how my life has been in the past couple of months. I know these days are long, and constantly adjusting is what makes a mom a superhero.
