"On the way home I was approached by the parents of two kids who wanted to get a picture taken with me."

In the FL Panhandle, about two years ago, I stopped at a convenience store to fill w/ gas and get a soda. I was wearing my flight suit, when I went inside to get my soda and pay. Two little girls...about five and seven years...walked up to me and grabbed my hand to get my attention. The youngest of the two said, "we pray for you every night."

Just writing this has me sitting with tears streaming down my face.

After being bombarded by lies and hatred from the media and certain politicians isn't amazing to see pure, honest innocence and love?

When I am fed up I think of those kids. It gives me hope when I get discouraged about the future of our nation.
