military moves are a headache
moves in general are a headache
however,
military moves do not happen on your time
they happen on the governments time.
read about our experience {here}
you often do not get to move with your spouse
also known as the military member
every day
your plans to move
can change
and often do
this woman is a military spouse
i saw her at the vehicle processing center
she has two kids in the car that you can not see
they are moving
military style
while she stuffs her suv
her husband is taking care of paperwork
leaving her to organize the chaos and pack the car
but she doesn't complain
what you can't see
is the kids crying
because it is lunch time
they have been there for a few hours now
they are tired
i know because i am tired & i am a 26 year old woman
this is a military move
you try to make sure everything fits
your life in boxes,
bags,
stuffed into small little spaces
and despite the tears
the chaos
feelings of exhaustion
you know it will turn out ok
and the crazy thing is
you wouldn't trade this experience
for the world
