I Love My Soldier, So Bring Him Home

I need a really big hug today. Today I had to face the fact that my hubby is a U.S. soldier who proudly serves his country. He never groans or complains, he just puts on his uniform, embraces his wife and children and walks out the door strong and proud. I Love You Sgt. for everything you stand for and all that you defend, YOU ARE OUR HERO!!! It's so hard to hear people blurt out negative comments regarding our country at war. As military families we understand that our loved ones chose this profession voluntarily, but the fact that they choose to defend the freedom of others, in my opinion is admirable. I don't care if they were fighting over popcorn, how about a little respect and honor. Thank you to all of you whom have offered your prayers and well wishes. They are truly comforting. I ordered some awareness ribbons from a customers Uppercase Living Open House. I'll be making my husband an awesome scrapbook full of memories from family events. I know he will enjoy it. We have a ton of fun looking through old photos together; seeing how the kids have grown and how we have changed and grown as a couple from the early days (LOL). Many thanks to our church family for your words of encouragement and your prayers of comfort. I am starting to get a bit teary eyed so I'm going to cut this blog short. Thanks for letting me share, I'm sure I'll have much more to share as the days go by. Continue to pray for all those who serve and their families. "If the eyes of your mind are not fully opened, there could be some love that you are not aware is present." Peace & Blessings
