Togetherness - It's the heart of the family;
          it's the heart of your family.

“An amazing book brimming with ideas for military families. Fuel for the fire of passion we call our military lives. We believe in Elaine’s work so much we’ve made it a part of our Spouse Field Exercise Conferences!”
– Tara Crooks and Star Henderson www.FieldProblems.com and co-hosts www.ArmyWifeTalkRadio.com.

“I love this book! I have wanted something like this for years. My mother bought is for me as a wonderful token for the upcoming deployment we have later this month. I just can’t praise it enough. I do love the diverse backgrounds that all the ideas are from and their different points of view. It makes the book even that much more interesting. Thank you for putting this book together.”
– Ashley Klein, “1st cav” fan

“I wholeheartedly endorse the book and the many ways, so simple, that anyone can use those great ideas to just put that smile on the face of their loved one, at perhaps just the right moment. It gives them hope, happiness, and knowledge that their relationship is so vital.”
-Janet Weber, MIARNG
