My son graduated from basic in March 2012 and is leaving on first deployment June 2013. Can’t even describe what is going on in the pit of my stomach. What is most difficult is that it is so hard to really put into words how I am feeling and the swell of pride I feel for his decision to defend our country. Despite my pride, I am so terrified for him. I came across this website accidentally and love the poem. Thank you for this outlet….. I pray for our men and women everyday. God Bless.

Please Lord watch over all of our children/family/soldiers and protect them from harms way, please keep them safe and return them home unscathed, with sanity on point 100%. I am your humble and submissive servant, help me stay on the path youve chosen me to walk upon. AMEN

Wonderful poem, thank you for publishing it for all of us moms. My son is currently in US Army in Afghanistan serving his first tour of duty. With our faith and prayers from others, we are able to stay strong for our soldier, who is enduring more than we are left behind. Pray for peace…

Thank you for such a beautiful poem. My son left this week for Alfgan. He is my baby boy. Could not share how my heart feels to anyone don’t think they would understand. This poem said it all. May God’s protection be with all our military men and women.

Just read this poem. Beautiful. My son hasn’t even left for basic yet. He leaves on june 10th, 9 days after he graduates high school. He will be do basic in Missouri (Fort Leonard Wood) After that he will go to San Antonio to start his training for combat medic. I am already so emotional, and feel so scared and alone. I know he is doing what is best for his future, but I hate this already and it hasn’t even started.

Your poem brought me to tears. Good tears, tears of cleansing. Thank you. I am a very proud Army mom my son is in the sandbox and I live for the green dot on face book. Best message on Facebook – hey mom what’s up? I’m doing ok how are you doing? Get 5-10 min before the connection is lost. But the best 10 min of my week. It is amazing how fast I can type when he is on. Lol. Each text lets me know he is doing. Ok and I get to tell him I love him.
I go nowhere without my phone and lucky for me my friends and family totally understand. Haven’t spoken to him since Feb and know I will get to Skype him soon as I am the birth coach for his wife and he will get to see his daughter born in a few weeks. This is the life of a military mom and family.
Thank you for sharing.
