The Seasoned MilSo

To any fellow military spouses out there—if you’re feeling low, tired, or just off when your person is gone? You’re not alone. We feel it because we love deeply. You’re holding your home together with invisible threads of strength, and your family sees it—even if they don’t say it every day. And when one of your kids offers to help clean without being asked? That’s love. That’s your impact. ❤️‍🩹💪

Being a mom of 3 is the greatest gift I’ve ever received—and the best gift my husband could have ever given me, not just once, but three times. I’m forever blessed.

Motherhood is full of joy, laughter, tears, and chaos. It can be overwhelming, but honestly, what part of life isn’t? And still, there’s nothing more rewarding than knowing I’m helping raise kind, strong, dependable humans.

It’s scary and amazing all at once—to know I play a role in shaping who they’ll become. They fill my heart with so much love and pride. Whether it's school, sports, or just the beautiful, messy day-to-day, I’m constantly on the go—and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

They’ve given me purpose. They’ve made me a mom. And I love them with everything I’ve got.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas out there—doing their best, loving hard, and showing up every single day.

Happy Military Spouse Appreciation Day
From standing beside my husband in his Marine dress blues to now watching him wear Army OCPs—I’ve lived the many layers of military life as a spouse.

I’ve felt the weight of goodbyes, the pride in service, and the strength it takes to keep going through every transition, deployment, and homecoming.

Being a military spouse means adapting, loving fiercely through distance, and holding it all together.

Today, I want to express my deep appreciation for the quiet strength, unwavering support, and boundless love that military spouses demonstrate daily. Please know that your contributions are seen and valued. It's perfectly acceptable to feel overwhelmed at times and to cry when your service member is deployed. The love we share with our spouse is what sustains and motivates us. This journey is a chotic one with constant changes, but it's worth it. Your love story is uniquely yours and deserves to be shared. It has genuinely helped me become a better person, benefiting not only myself but also my family. My husband's strength, work ethic, and determination are truly inspiring, and I deeply admire him. I am proud to be a military spouse because of the kind of person he is. He, along with our children, is my inspiration. Please remember that you are not alone; you are valued and appreciated.

May is Military Appreciation Month, and I just want to take a moment to recognize military families—especially my own.

As a military spouse and mom of three, I know firsthand the sacrifices that come with this life. My husband works incredibly hard, often missing milestones and everyday moments, and while it’s not always easy, we understand the reason behind his service. We’re proud of him—of us—because this is a team effort.

Military families may not wear the uniform, but we serve in our own way—through the goodbyes, the homecomings, and all the in-between.

This month, I’m just feeling extra grateful for the strength, love, and purpose that carries us through it all. Here's to every military family doing their best behind the scenes—you are seen, appreciated, and never alone.

Being a military spouse means learning to love in the in-between.
The quick dinners, the popcorn movie nights, the letters sent during long separations—they may seem small, but they’re everything.

This month, I created a comic for Military Spouse Appreciation Month. Whether you’ve just started this life or you’re years in, I hope it reminds you: you're not alone, and your love story matters.

May is Military Spouse Appreciation Month—a time to recognize the quiet strength, endless love, and everyday sacrifices of those who hold down the fort while their partners serve.This comic was bor…

For those going and will be going through their next PCS:

"AAAAHHH!"—The PCS Sticker Strikes Again!

As PCS season sneaks up on us like a ninja in camo, let’s talk about a true constant in the chaos: those pesky PCS stickers. They’re like glitter—show up once, and suddenly they’re everywhere. On the walls, the furniture, the appliances... heck, even your kids' toys get involved in the madness!

At first, you're too busy trying to find your favorite mug to worry about them. But as the months go by, those little stickers hang around like an uninvited guest at the party. And when it’s time to move again? Well, let’s just say they don’t make inventory any easier.

So, here’s your PSA: If you spot a sticker, don’t just stare at it like it’s a crime scene. Peel that thing off! Future-you (and your poor movers) will thank you. You’ve got this!
