Hello Blog-ville!

Hi Everyone! I've started this blog in an attempt to chronicle military life from the beginning. A couple of months ago my husband became a Future Soldier in the US Army. He will be leaving for training in January 2010 and should be out in May.

I'm going to use this blog as a place to jot down things I've learned, things that concern me, baffle me, make me laugh and make me cry. It's going to be a real blog..... no spared feelings, no sugar coating. Just the true tale of a military family.

My husband and I have 2 kids and 2 dogs. None of these family members have moved much which should make for an interesting adjustment period. I, on the other hand, spent the majority of my life moving from town to town, state to state. So let's just say I think I'll have an easier time of all this.

One of the first things I did when my husband and I were discussing the possibility of him beginning a career in the military was do some research. I'm just that kind of gal. I like to be "in the know". While perusing one of many military websites I stumbled upon a list of military acronyms. One that caught my eye was HH6. This stands for Household 6.... as in 6 o'clock..... as in your back. It means your family has your back, they stand behind you and give you support. That is something I want to always be true about my relationship with my husband and I make choices with this goal in mind. I want my husband to always know that we stand behind him 100%. That is why I chose "HisHH6" as the blog address.
Are you a military family? Any advice for a Future Soldier's family?
