Today I am in the New York Times on line. I wrote a piece on our children missing my husband while he is deployed.

Great article! I’m sure this is something we’ll be struggling with again in the future. The first time, our oldest was 3-4, and our little one didn’t exist yet. I think we all muddle through it as best we can. No one gives us a parenting manual, let alone one for these situations.

Thank you for letting us into the very small moments of your life. For so many of us who are not military families, the war may have become more of a detached surreal news report only on CNN. Yours and your daughters’ anguish and what must be daily fear remind me what a truly great sacrifice is being performed everyday not just by soldiers in battle, but by families at home.
Here’s for peace soon…
