No Star in the Sky
Hi my name is Allie. I am 22 years old. I have been married to the love of my life, Michael Martins, for 2 1/2 years. Michael was tragically taken from this earth on November, 6th 2009. He was involved in a motorcycle accident. My life has been forever changed. I am going to use this blog to my advantage. To document my life as I try to rebuild, how I am going to go on living how Michael would have wanted to live. Michael, no star in the sky will burn longer than my love for you.

Don’t Stop Believin’...Hold on to that feeling
Sometimes the only thing to do is write. Everyday I get up and I choose to keep going. Some are good days, some are bad days, and some I share here.
Letters from Home
01.03.2010 was the day that I became a widow. That unforgettable Sunday morning was the morning that my daughter lost her father. January 3, 2010 will be a day that I remember forever. It was the last day that I could ever talk to my husband. It was the last day that I waited for his return. It was the last day that I was happy. My hope in writing these letters to my husband is to help me sort out what I am feeling and in a way still talk to the love of my life. I’m not writing for sympathy or attention. I am writing for myself and for those who want to try to understand what it feels like to lose the one person you can live without.
A Love Interrupted
At 21, Taryn found herself a military widow. This blog is a combination of her thoughts, songs, blurbs, confusion and more.
One More Thing
In the life of a widow and single mom, life simply cannot function quite like that of other people. Decisions can never be made without anticipating a million other issues that most people will never even have to consider. Pretty much every aspect of my life is governed by this rule. It’s always… One More Thing.
Home Is With You
There are never farewells; just love, just - continuation. I love, adore, admire, miss, and draw strength from the love of my soul mate, my hero, my soldier, my one and only, WL. I love you babe.
Moments All Mine

I have always been an opinionated person and in the words of Maxine, “I will defend to your death my right to my opinion.” As the title says, it is a blog that is ALL MINE. Life did not end for me after my husband was killed in Iraq… It began again. My journey, my attempt to muddle through and make sense. That’s what this blog is about. Moments all mine and living again.
A Love Eternal
David has left me with so much… His love, strength, memories… and his name. Together we prove that love can be stronger than death. I AM HART. His Hart.

Today’s Widow
After a great 21-year marriage, Robin Craig lost her 43-year-old husband suddenly and unexpectedly. She had a premonition that she was supposed to help other widows, and she is doing just that with her blog. Robin’s journey has been especially difficult because most of her family members pre-deceased her husband forcing her to figure out her new role as a widow by herself. She excelled and went on to win two national daytime Emmys proving that widows CAN create a great, productive life despite adversity. She provides comfort, strength, hope and encouragement to be the best you can be no matter what by sharing her many experiences and challenges.
