For the troops...

Thank you, to all that currently serve. Thank you, to all that have served. And thank you , to all that have given the ultimate sacrifice to protect us and our nation.

Baby's breath...

Losing a child must be the worst thing in life to live through. A friend of mine lost his grandson yesterday. He went to sleep but didn't wake up. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during these turbulent times.

A Mothers' Prayer
An emptyness that I now feel,
since you left I love you still.
For you the pictures I have drawn,
but my pain goes on and on.

I miss you now, but your with God
And I know your near.
Listen as I pray at night,
for you will always hear.

If I had one wish come true,
My only wish would be for you.
To hold you in my arms once more,
Tell you I love you, forever and more.

And now my son if I may near,
I'm saying that I love you dear
with all my loving heart,
I'll never forget you,
I loved you from the start!

Six years...

It's been six years since my father passed. Not a day goes by where I don't think of him in one way or another. I vividly remember the good times and the bad. The bad were usually caused by my arrogance and young stupidity. There are days where I feel like I can call mom's house and he'll pick up the phone, say hello, and ask if I need any vegetables from the garden. I miss you dad. I miss you a lot.

In Memorium...

Cho Seung-Hui...you sick SOB: May God have mercy on your soul because I would not.
