WOW! Is really all I can say. The time, energy, resources, prayer, thought, example, compassion, and leadership that Michelle puts into her products is truly remarkable. I consider myself to be a pretty “seasoned” military spouse, and having served myself, I do feel as though I have a bit of an upper hand in understanding military lingo and obligations, etc. But even I’ve learned from Michelle.
