I love the first day of school: new clothes, fresh, crisp, white sheets of paper in your notebook, refreshed hopes and goals.
Military families experience a lot of first days of school, in a lot of new schools as they PCS around the globe.
And though walking through that new door for the very first time can be nerve-wracking, the friends you make on the other side are always worth that difficult first step.
As we crack open our books this fall semester, please welcome our newest columnist, Kira Hooper, a Navy veteran, military spouse, mom of two and full-time college student.
Kira writes from her home in California where her husband serves as a Navy corpsman and where she attends school to fulfill her dream of becoming a registered nurse.
Please help us welcome her through our front door on her first day here at Salute to Spouses. We know you’ll be happy she has joined us.
