@gritglamourgrace: it’s not easy being the parent of a 1 percenter 🫶🏻 tag a military mom below that needs to know she’s not alone in this #militarytiktok #militarymom #marinecorps #marinemom
single dad here and my only son its currently in boot camp and nothing has been the same and I know things will be different from now on...house is too quiet, i even turn his room light on sometimes just to feel that he is in his room, sometimes I call his name just to hear if he is hungry or not. life definitely dont prepare you for this im just taking it one day at a time but it has been hard. 🥲 and now just the waiting period of whenever he calls, whenever he send a letter, whenever he makes me a grandpa and live all moments all over again but this time with the grandkids 😪

This is so well said! 💗. My daughter is home for two weeks before she reports to her first duty station. She has been so busy and I know we have such little time together. She is spread so thin seeing everyone….every second with her is so precious and saying goodbye doesn’t seem to get easier. I’m trying to make the best of this time and trying not to think of saying goodbye…again! Thank you for posting this! 💙🇺🇸

It’s so hard to say see you later, because you never know how long that later is.

Proud Marine mama here ❤️. The goodbyes are so hard. Our son was home on leave last month. He was so busy while here, but honored me by allowing me to have family pics done. Big hugs mama❣️

I was so upset he chose to go to NYC for the holidays but I understood that he wanted to experience something new. I just wanted family Christmas pics with him in it 🥹

I learned as a Marine dad. Don't expect a response back quickly sometimes. I sometimes think something has happened to him. Then I get a response back finally.
