If you read my last blog post, "Military spouses," you know I am no longer writing here. I've started a new blog with a different voice at Kimber's Five . Follow the link or check me out at http://kimbersfive.blogspot.com/ . Thank you to all my blog followers and everyone who has emailed me supporting me since shutting down Kimber's Navy Family. All the best, Kimber
I started this blog before my twins were a year old, 7 years ago. We were a growing military family. We had PCS'd together 3 times by then. I felt like when I talked to other parents of multiples that there was a marked difference in our family mentality. They all had a long view-- neighborhoods they planned on living in for their children's entire childhoods, or sending their kids to schools that they themselves had gone to or all their previous children had gone to. As a military family, our focus is much more on the present. The time we have together today. Where we are living right now. My husband's schedule that week. We have to approach our plans with an open hand. Because I have found that I make plans and hold on to them with a tight fist and, like sand, they slip through my fingers. The military is always changing the game on us. Our orders were revoked before we moved to this duty station. Granted, they came through a week or so later, but at that point in time
