I don't normally talk about big news items here, but this month has been terrible news-wise. The shootings in Germany broke my heart and the tsunami in Japan just leaves me speechless. The images from Japan are just--I don't have the words to convey my thoughts. I am trying to keep Sarah's wise words in my head as I think about it all because I 100% agree with her. It is difficult.

I watched that Lifetime show "Coming Home" yesterday. Seriously, I just cried my way through the whole thing. I think most military families (moms, dads, and kids alike) probably have the same reaction. The emotion that comes from those homecoming moments is so singular--watching someone else go through it brings it all rushing back. I don't normally go for the military themed shows (stereotypes, anyone?), but I'll probably watch this one.
