The Soldier Mother's Creed



I am the mother of an American Soldier.

I give my complete and unwavering support to my soldier.

As my son serves the people of the United States, so I humbly offer up prayers for his safety and the safety and health of those he serves beside..

I respect his choice to adhere to a strict moral code and a system of values that has preserved our country over two centuries.

I accept that my soldier's first duty is to his country and I understand that this sacrifice he willingly makes is what keeps our nation great.

I will never expect anything but the best from my soldier, for I know he is capable.

I know that a soldier's heart is true and strong, and that my soldier will endure.

I will never abandon my soldier, my son. I will love him unconditionally.

He will know I am there with him, even when he is alone.

I am disciplined, emotionally and mentally tough, learning to wait for phone calls and letters or emails home.

I, like my soldier, am an expert.
I stand ready to do whatever I can do to let my son, my soldier, know that we are here for him, behind him, we love him, and I will pray for the swift destruction of the enemies of our country.

I am the person who stood guardian of this man who has become my soldier, now our guardian of freedom and the American way of life.

I am the proud mother of an American Soldier!


Be Safe - Be Good - Be Strong
