I remember the day, waiting on the call.....
Sitting in my office, as the first tower was hit, co-workers ran to my office and turned on my TV. As we sat and watched, the second tower was hit......at that moment, I began to cry............I knew the call was coming. And shortly after, it did, "Mom, first, I love you.........we are on stand-by" (I cry even now). So, the 101st Airborne Division prepared to depart, and over the next month, their first tour began.....and my son served two tours, one in Afghanistan and the second at the fall of Iraq. I was proud of him then and always!
To all that lost loved ones, I cannot know your pain, but I am with you in prayer.
To those who served or had a family member or friends serve, and to those who still do, my deepest thanks now and forever!
