Thank you SA! That is one of my favorite poems--my hubby and I used to hear it quoted on a TV station in Wichita Falls every night at sign-off when he was in the Air Force--and it always made me cry then--and it does now!

WELCOME HOME DAVID! |
Thank God you're home David. I was getting tired of having to share *chocolates* with your Mama. It ain't fun always sharing the chocolate stash. So? Would you buy her some chocolate? Thank you!!Here's a song that is absolutely appropriate for you? Click AND Click Thank you for your service to America. Thank God you're out there getting the job done. God help America if MoJo had to defend us. Actually, if that was the case. Half of the world wouldn't exist. |
