A few things that comfort me...<br /><br />1. Every Israeli I know says that the army service matured them hugely. On the other hand, I totally know what you mean-- how would I feel if something would happen to one of my kids b/c of army service?<br /><br />2. My family in the US is incredibly spread out, so much that we basically all need to fly or drive for at least a full day to visit each other. So I'm not actually missing all that much, and hopefully living in Israel will mean that our kids will live closer to home some day. We'll see!<br /><br />Good luck!Maya / מיהhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09871125878143128412noreply@blogger.com
