What a beautiful family you have, including the furry new little family member. Not really knowing any military families, I thought I had an idea of what it would be like. Having read this article, I realize I had NO idea what you go through on a daily basis. Your story has deeply touched me. I am so sorry for the sacrifices your family has made and continues to make. You will remain in my prayers.

I am a 61-year-old, married mother of a 22-year-old college-age son.<br /><br />I was very touched by the story about you, Rob, Eva, and Julia...and wanted to let you know how much my family and I appreciate the sacrifices you have made on our behalf to keep our country free and secure. While I wish I could change that which cannot be changed, I hope that the love and caring this message brings will lighten your load a little bit today.<br /><br />I have enjoyed reading your various posts and, from them, know that you and your girls will be just fine. You have the inner strength and resilience to get through this difficult time and to make the girls the better for it. I am so very pleased that your extended family, friends, and neighbors honor you for you deserve it.<br /><br />My sincerest thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

Thank you so much for sharing your poignant story in such a simple yet elegant way.

For that we shall always be grateful.<br /><br />I am sure that Rob would be so very proud of you and I pray that God continues to give you the strength and courage to live life to its fullest.

I read through every single post.<br /><br />I know I can never fully understand the painful sacrifice that military families like yours make, and I know that thanks will never be enough, but from the bottom of my heart: thank you. Your husband sounds like he was an amazing man who gave his life for a cause in which he truly believed. You and your girls should be incredibly proud. Thank you.
