Military kids serve too!

Thanks for coming back to visit! If you would like to be a guest blogger at ArmyHousehold6.com - please let Tammy know!

As a mom of 2 Army brats, I see each and every day that my kids serve in the Army too. They don’t have to do PT , field exercises, TDY or deployments but they share the sacrifices that we make.

When SGT Daddy is gone, they miss him just as much as I do, sometimes even more. As an adult  I’m able to make more sense of why Daddy has to go(well most of the time)  or why we have to move, but sometimes they just can’t.

I know this is the case of thousands of military kids all over as the US and abroad.

That is why the entire month of April is dedicated as Month of the Military Child. Yep, that’s right the entire month is dedicated to the selfless sacrifice that these kids make. Military installations and support organizations around the world are holding special events just for the kids!

I also wanted to let you know of a special prize giveaway for Military Kids sponsored by United Concordia (Tricare Dental)
