Description
"This collection of reassuring, informative letters for military spouses offers encouraging words and practical advice about many aspects of military life. Readers choose topics and letters to read when they need guidance tailored to the military life situations they are facing, from planning a military wedding, to attending their first military ball, giving birth while a spouse is deployed, moving across country (or an ocean) on short notice, making friends in a new community, preparing to leave active duty, and many other moments in between. Author Lizann Lightfoot is a professional writer, military spouse, and mother of five. Her Open When letters are based on her experiences as a girlfriend, fiancée, and wife through two decades of her Marine husband's service, seven deployments, and several military moves. She is known in the military community as The Seasoned Spouse for sharing her experience with other military loved ones on her blog of the same name"--
