Check out my guest post on SpouseBuzz

Today I wrote about 5 lessons I learned through our first deployment for SpouseBuzz. The 5 are:

1. You can still work on your marriage.
2. Don’t freak out when your loved one isn’t online.
3. You can and will make amazing friends.
4. Halfway point is not as joyous as you may think.
5. The strain of deployment lasts until the end.
