A poem and a Thanks from us!!!

A GI Christmas Tree
by Ellen Bailey

I won't be home for Christmas this year
Uncle Sam has me helping our Allies over here
But do think of me when you go for a stroll
When you are wandering about in the wintry cold

I plan to have a Christmas tree just like you
The Lord will provide it, so I don't be blue
My Christmas tree will be for everyone to see
The Heavens above will be become my tree

The stars will be the lights that make it glow
The scatter clouds I'll pretend will be the snow
I will use the Milkyway for all the trimmings
And I will top it off with a Moon that is beaming

My tree will be on display Christmas night
So please stay up late and catch the sight
Look for the presents; they are there too
The presents are the love I have for you....



God bless all of you fighting terror around the world and away from your loved ones. I wish all of you a safe journey, and a swift return.

Hoorahhh!!!!

Right on! Here is a site with some vids of our boys fighting hard through Iraq and else where. I watch them so that I might be able to feel a bit closer to those in harms way.

God bless our troops and those who support them including those Iraqis that want a free society.

Thanks for the kind words and all of your support. Been in hell for almost a full year now and missing my sons 1st Christmas (and Birthday in Jan.) is the worst. Just hope to make it home safe before Easter. Thanks again!
