"A soldier doesn't fight because he hates what is in front of him. A soldier fights because he loves what he left behind." - unknown

"God is our refuge and strength. He will protect us and make us strong" (ps 46:1). For those who will fly today, for those who are there now, and for those who will soon join the fight, Lord, shield them from all evil, strengthen their hearts, and bring them home safely.

    You don't MAKE those wreaths do you? Because it would just be unfair for you to be so talented at writing AND crafts. Seriously. That is adorable.

    Ok I don't think the first commenter ever wins anything, but I will throw my name in the hat ;) We are Army and have been for almost 3 yrs. :)
