Sorry I haven't been posting much lately, just really busy...
Well my brother's heading to Afganistan next week. The whole family is very proud of him, but at the same time VERY nervous. Saying our last goodbyes was really tough. We try to think positive but in the back of our minds we know the possibilities. I just can't help thinking I wish I could take his place. He has three kids, I have none. I guess he knew the chances were there when he signed on the dotted line, and he is very good at what he does. But leaving the family, especially the kids is really tough. All across the country families are going through similar experiences. It just never really hits home though until someone close to you gets involved. Sorry for babbling, just venting a little I guess.
God bless all who protect this great country and I'm proud of you all!:beer::beer:
