Everywhere I look, the world is in turmoil. I look at the video on the nightly news of little children pouring across the border of Mexico through Texas into my country, and I try to imagine what would compel me as a mother to send my child unaccompanied by an adult into another country where the message of that's country's government is "DO NOT COME, YOU WILL ONLY BE SENT BACK."
The words here are about my life as the wife of a now retired Soldier. I live on a small ranch in Texas, and my experiences here craft the words I use to express my life. The sacrifices, challenges, and the deeply satisfying rewards of being the wife of such a man influence them as well. I live in a beautiful and peaceful place, and it is great solace and comfort when I face life and the challenges of a complicated and stressed world. So I have titled my writings "From the Ranch."
