Please take a moment on Monday to thank our soldiers and to pray or have a moment of silence for their sacrifices for our country and for our freedom.... |
 |
My friend Yolande will be saying good by to her son Keith... he is leaving for Afghanistan.... |
 |
We will be praying for his safety and for him to have strength... |
 |
and to all the children who have given up time with their parents... |
 |
| |
 |
The time that soldiers are away from their loved ones... |
 |
We salute them for their courage... |
 |
and to let them know what a blessing they are to us... |
 | ||
Yolande... we will be praying for Kieth and for your family to have strength while he is gone...our heart goes out to you and we thank your son for being a man of integrity...and to all others who have fought for freedom! Have a great weekend! Julie |

Julie,
ReplyDeleteMemorial Day comes once a year for us. But not for the families who have members in the military. Everyday is a struggle when they are away serving. Thank you for your emotional post as the photos say it all.
