Military Families Support Group
Today's military family faces a lifestyle that is comprised of frequent deployments, which results in increased family separations. This often proves to be a stressful challenge for military families. This community is dedicated to the families that are dealing with the unique challenges of distance and military-related stress.
So I was thinking about doing the whole yellow ribbon in the hair thing, but I thought I'd see what other people do.
Do you wear a yellow ribbon in any way? Do you wear it all the time, or only when your loved one is deployed? Do you wear yellow for Cav and blue for infantry? etc

I wear my USO Support Our Troops wristband daily, and have tried to attach several items to my backpack for school, but none have worked well yet. I also have a 'US Navy I LOVE My Sailor' license place frame, and a purse that says 'Navy Girlfriend Since 12-11-2006' that I made myself at a school event.

Ooooh, that purse idea is a good one

Yeah. It's a really cute thing that my school does. They give out just little handle bags in either like a tan or this time it was solid black and then you get to decorate them in puff paints. They last really well. I didn't think it would, but it does pretty good.
