It is so hard to be a Mom that has a Son whom has been called to duty. In my quest to somehow put it into words I thought that a website would help me and just maybe...another Mom.
It is here on this site that I begin my understanding, dedicate my love to my Son and pray for his safe return.
When he was born, I never ever imagined in my entire world that he would be sent off to War. I still remember how much fun he was as a little boy what a wonderful disposition he had (and still has). I was so blessed that way! I took him everywhere with me as I never trusted anyone to love him as much as I did and I was so young that he was not only my bestfriend, but my one and only cuddly toy. All mine...... to love, to hold, to cherish and to guide throught life the best I knew how. I used to teach him that the military was not the place to be, that sometimes in the past we could not trust that they do the right thing. Then as you grow up as a parent and they grow up as a adult, you both become educated in the matter of "its always about the children" and you educate yourself on our history of this great nation and how very very blessed we are to be free. Even tho we complain about the high taxes and such things..... we still enjoy that freedom of complaining..its called free speech!
As I grow older and watch my Son's eyes when he holds his Son in his arms and I see all the same wondermant and love that I had/have in my eyes as his Mother, it all falls into place...the entire world makes sence and it is so very peaceful and so joyful that mere words don't seem to do it justice. That is where it all makes perfect sence that we support this War ! Not only to ensure our children's future for peace, growth, freedom and the dream to become what ever you want to become.
but to know what "sacrafice" means. It is the simple fact that we as parents will die for our children..and go to war if necessary to "protect" there right to life itself!
With that understanding comes peace of mind and pure joy that your Son has grown up and stands for something much much larger than ourselves. And has the courage and bravery to do something about it!
GOD BLESS YOU MY SON! AND ALL THE SERVICEMEN THAT ARE WILLING TO PUT YOUR LIFES ON THE LINE FOR OUR FREEDOM, SAFETY AND THE RIGHT TO LIVE WITH UNCONDITIONAL LOVE LIKE THIS!
Please hurry home as your family's love and miss you beyond words!
