We LOVE research and data!  There is nothing worse than hearing someone's opinion about being a military family.  I'm  a data girl.  I found the best scholarly article about military families that is solely based on facts, research and data.  LOVE!

Military Kids Have Greater Challenges

I discovered an article today from a few years ago.  However, the timing couldn't be better.  We are launching a website/blog to help and connect other military families, just like us, through the transitions of the military lifestyle.  This particular article really encompasses our concern for our children and yours.

Our mission is to provide parents information, resources, stories and places to go for help after leaving our blog.  Becky and I are both parents of exceptional kids (in our eyes) and struggle to parent them through their normal developmental growth, but also through the tranistions of living the military life. 

As of now, we are work in progress hoping launch a full blog and website soon.  So check back or follow us now, we'll up and running after the first of the year.
