Our Mission: The FReeper Foxhole is dedicated to Veterans of our Nation's military forces and to others who are affected in their relationships with Veterans. In the FReeper Foxhole, Veterans or their family members should feel free to address their specific circumstances or whatever issues concern them in an atmosphere of peace, understanding, brotherhood and support. The FReeper Foxhole hopes to share with it's readers an open forum where we can learn about and discuss military history, military news and other topics of concern or interest to our readers be they Veteran's, Current Duty or anyone interested in what we have to offer. If the Foxhole makes someone appreciate, even a little, what others have sacrificed for us, then it has accomplished one of it's missions. We hope the Foxhole in some small way helps us to remember and honor those who came before us.

Reach Out To The Young
Read:

Darmeisha didn't like the neighbor woman Suzanne, but she still knocked at her door frequently. She was an unhappy 8-year-old who seemed to enjoy mocking people. Most of their conversations ended with Suzanne telling her that she needed to go home.
Suzanne didn't like Darmeisha, but she knew the little girl had reasons for her attitudeliving in poverty, having no father in her life, and being neglected by her mother. So Suzanne asked the Lord to help her love Darmeisha. She began greeting her with a smile and showing an interest in her life. Darmeisha gradually warmed up to her and they became friends.
The girl is 13 now, and they are having a Bible study together. They talk about what it means to follow Jesus, because Darmeisha has given her life to Him.
Jesus took time for children. He was "greatly displeased" when the disciples wanted to keep the little ones away from Him, and He said, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them" (Mark 10:13-14). He even said that we all must receive His kingdom as children do (v.15).
A 2004 Barna survey showed that 85 percent of Christians began their relationship with Jesus before age 14. So take time for the children. Reach out to the young. Anne Cetas
Strong faith is often found in the heart of a child.
Sure, for you maybe! Struggling Capitalist Pigs must work continuously!
Good morning PE.
LOL. Yes, inventory is moving better. We are glad for the colder weather, folks want to feed more.
To get an appreciation for the flying critters you need to look at them through binoculars or sit a spell and watch their antics.
Ask your wife for me what type of birds she is getting at her feeder, then let me know. I'll show you some close-ups.
;-)
I'm hoping to have a thread for Thanksgiving, waiting on permission. If I don't get it I'll post it anyway, LOL. For educational purposes of course.
Avon "Skin So Soft" works, too.
someone should write a "journal" from the dog's point of view. That would be interesting. "Seaman's diary" has a nice ring.
Maybe this would be a good read for one of your home schooling courses.
Of course then karate boy would have to give us a report. ;-)
