Ah, gotta love good old Mother Superior - When she asked how the kids were, I told her the truth - not well - she informed me that everybody goes through hard times and they needed to just cope - that's what the other grandchildren have done-
gee, i didn't know that was a prerequesite of being a grandchild in this wonderful family -
Dear God -
My children are not in military, my husband is -
They miss him some days, they don't remember him other days - they cry, they worry - but hey, they need to just cope -
They are children, their dad is gone, they are children of Mother Superior's first born - one would think somehow that counts for something -
they are hurting-
They don't need to suck it up and deal -
They need to be hugged and have cookies baked for them and have be spoiled by grandparents -
Not told to be all they can be or that they are in effect, 'An army of one' - or two, as the case may be
If mr. wonderful were here, he'd probably laugh that his mother would be that insensitive -
somehow i don't see the humor
did I mention Mother Superior is a proud member of Shrub's party?

Mother superior - my butt! neither a decent example of mother, nor superior. Let children grieve. However, if you can help them think about something else, do something fun (camp, anyone?) or an inexpensive day out somewhere fun? Is there anything like our Camp Noah program there for Guard kids? Check with your State Guard youth coordinators, I think everyone has one.
You don't say if you have webcam access with your husband. If you don't you might want to think about it. Friends of mine have told me that it made a huge difference when their 3 year old could SEE daddy. but if you can, don't let DH know how nasty his mom is being. Yes she's a rodent female canine person... but she's still his mom! (been there... not fun)
