“And you were wrong too, Mom. He didn’t have any little needle holes in his hands. Just the big ones. Straight through. Just like he’s supposed to.”

My favorite line in the whole story...so matter of fact. I can hear my 7-year old nephew saying those exact same words...

I agree...that is my favorite line as well.

This story is one that my ex-wife would give me grief over. She harassed me for being emotional about things like this, and for being "hoohah crazy" over poems like the one just recently posted about the soldier alone at Christmas time...or any military type poetry for that matter. Can't help it though. Her loss.
