During her husband's deployment in Afghanistan, Becky volunteered with the Family Readiness Group, which aids and alerts families of service members. However, her most significant experience with helping others through a family member’s deployment occurred in her own home, where her young son Benson would have days of heartbreak as his father served abroad. After encouraging Benson to express his feelings and explaining the selfless service of his father, it dawned on Becky that her son was lending his father to the world. Thus, the book I’ll Lend You My Daddy was born.
