I love both my daughters. They are both military retirees and terrific moms. Both have put all their older children through college and will undoubtedly do so with the younger ones. I am especially proud of the younger one because she was a troublemaker as a teen. Poor grades in high school...skipped school...gave herself a homemade tattoo...brought home by the cops twice...etc. Now she is a former youth court judge, worked on the team preparing prosecutions on GITMO prisoners (a very thankless job because she knew they would never get to trial), and is now serving on a high level commission gathering recommendations to prevent sexual abuse in the military. In addition, she makes the world's best rum cake.
