What does it mean to you to be a military mom?

As submitted by Angelina

My son joined the Army at 17 years old.  I always knew he'd go.  When he was very young he would save his money to buy uniforms at the antique stores and wear the uniforms anywhere he could.  His favorite was a Military dress coat that would practically drag on the floor but he would wear it to the grocery store and any other place he could.  Watching him leave that day to bootcamp I cried so much but I couldn't be prouder!!  He and the others who join him are one of a kind.  They cant be beat!  Most people won't go out to do what these soldiers do.  They make the ultimate sacrifice!  There aren't enough words to express the pride I feel when I see, not just my own son but other soldiers.  If I see one in a cafeteria I'll offer to pay for his cup of coffee, maybe let one get ahead of me in line at the grocery store.  Any way that any of us can help these men and women I know they appreciate it.  I wish I was close to where my son is.  He's in Texas and will be deployed in February is what they're telling him.  I call his voicemail just to hear his voice.  I thank everyone who has been good to my son and the other soldiers.  God bless them all and keep them safe.
