Proud of who I am

Yesterday was a VERY emotional day and I am so honored to be a Marine Mom and to share life with such a wonderful group of people!!
This is exactly how they handled to fallen Marine...(Just any picture not from yesterday!)
Such honor and respect they gave Blake!!

I am PROUD to be an American!!!

I honestly am telling you the truth when I say I cried enough yesterday to fill a river!! I actually really cried so much that I am almost sick...my sinuses are messed up BAD!!! I have NEVER went to a military funeral and I hope and pray I NEVER have to go to another!! Beautiful but so so SAD!!


I met several other Marine Moms and found out that there is this group that I should be a part of and I have joined and can't wait to participate!! They are Mothers of Children that are in the Military and either have had one in deployment or if they have a fallen one then they become Gold Star Moms!! Thank God I am just a Blue Star Mom!!!



They don't just honor the Marine but ever branch of the Military!!! I am so PROUD to say that I am a part of this wonderful group....They are AMAZING!!!!





SO today I am gonna get myself ready and get gone to church!! I have puffy eyes and stuffy nose but all will be fine!!
Enjoy your day!!
Keep Praying...IT WORKS!!

  2. Thank you for representing all of us that couldn't be there...my heart was heavy yesterday & I so wanted to be able to pay my respects to Chris & his family & to honor Blake. The sadness has been overwhelming at times. I also wished that I lived closer to so many of you MOMs, there are a lot of MOMS here too, but funny thing about New Englanders as a rule aren't considered the friendliest bunch of people which can be lonely. I have often thought about asking how many New England / East Coast MOMs on fb to see if we could all meet up maybe monthly or something...problem is I don't like rejection ~ LOL!!

    Thanks again for sharing the events of the day, my heart will be heavy for a long time :/ Love Ya so much!!
