I read this and I think... if only I can do as good a job at raising my own two kids as you and dad did with us... I know everything will be okay. You have both been (and continue to be) amazing, awesome and wonderful parents. I'm so glad that you and Dad stuck through the hard times and have such a wonderful relationship today. I am so happy for you guys. I plan to have something as special as that someday... <BR/><BR/>Alex always has been such a sweet kid, brother and friend. I think thats why God gave me the two brothers that I have, so I could always have 2 best friends.<BR/><BR/>Love ChrisUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09911656928064965795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8337291898556479782.post-50563535486566542772008-06-19T07:15:00.000-07:002008-06-19T07:15:00.000-07:00Re-title - How to make grown MEN cry.

Winter is a great time to be here. Gus says thanks! <BR/><BR/>Roy, thank you for your kind regards. All I can say is we did our best to love them unconditionally. <BR/><BR/>Shellmo, It's nice to share such a special moment and know that it touches the lives of others.

It's been a long 15 months!<BR/><BR/>scrapbookideas, I was hoping you would get to read this. Thank you for saying so. We were all choked up around here.<BR/><BR/>jalynn01, you hit the nail on the head. We are so proud of him though, as a mom, I'd rather have him safe at home! Now he is and we will enjoy each moment, for I have no idea how soon they will send him back or move him on to Afganisatn instead. Having him safe makes me think all the more of those who are still over there and I lift my heart in prayer for each of them.<BR/><BR/>Neva, thank you and welcome!Kathie Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10377224759599266209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8337291898556479782.post-19305642197962216722008-06-16T16:50:00.000-07:002008-06-16T16:50:00.000-07:00You brought a tear to my eye!I am glad your some i...You brought a tear to my eye!I am glad your some is safely home from Iraq!Nevahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601316661181297640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8337291898556479782.post-74236957043974694432008-06-16T09:28:00.000-07:002008-06-16T09:28:00.000-07:00Beautiful, touching, and emotional.

Hope your Father's Day is a good one.<BR/><BR/>Ruth, thank you. I like to be open but I have been cautious. Reading other's posts has made me feel more comfortable with sharing my personal life and feelings. Julie Zickefoose wrote an excellent post about why she blogs about her personal life that really opened my eyes.<BR/><BR/>Bobbie, thank you. Wish I could have put a box of tissues out there for you! I'll come read what you had to say. Thanks for dropping by.<BR/><BR/>Stacy, thank you for your kind and sincere thoughts. I have been to Cody a long time ago, but never north on that route you speak of. I love Cody and Yellowstone. I hope to travel back there again some day. I have a piece of petrified wood I bought at some rock shop there in Cody. I use it as a door stop in my master bath to keep the wind from slamming the door when the windows are open. I think of Cody and Yellowstone every time I see it!Kathie Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10377224759599266209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8337291898556479782.post-30937835550912751812008-06-15T06:29:00.000-07:002008-06-15T06:29:00.000-07:00Kathie, this is beautiful.
