A 4th Grader Writes to Soldiers (VANITY - WONDERFUL)

Thanks LibertyT. It was touching indeed. It also reminds me of a quote in the Bible about "train a child in the way he should go....."(Prov.22:6).

We watch with shock and awe at the bravery of our soldiers. Their honor knows no bounds and our pride is limitless.

May God watch over all of our beloved soldiers and comfort their families in their absence. We pray for them daily and fly our flags proudly.

Thanks for this encouraging post.

I can't wait to show this thread to this student on Monday. He will really be pleased with all the nice, heart-warming comments his letter has gotten.

I believe his response will be one of shock and awe.

[Dubya]

I bet so too. These children are lucky to have a teacher like you. Its easy to tell that you really care about them.

Add me to those who give praise to this student.

Dear Soldier,

I know what you are doing is good.

But, don't forget it is for our rights.
I hope you survive and come home safe.
When you leave I will say a prayer and here it is.

When the sun goes down and everyone is sleeping,
if I hear a sound like things around me creeping,
I look at the American flag and tell myself not to be scared.

I know that I am safe because you are there protecting us.

Thanks for quoting the letter again -- truly a great letter from a 4th grader who seems to "get it" more than a lot of the media and the two-bit Hollywood airheads with their "ironic messages."
