for sure!! i am so grateful to the ppl who choose to go into the military, knowing the sacrifices that they will be making. not just in war time - even in peaceful times, a military life is full of sacrifice & hard work. which i think ppl tend to forget...
ReplyDeleteanyway! *hugs* to your military family, as well! it was a good day, went fast, and now i'm hungry & must head for home!!! love ya!!
