Mowing Grass!

Here is a soldier stationed in Iraq , stationed in a big sand box. He asked
his wife to send him dirt ( U.S. soil), fertilizer, and some grass seed so that he can have the sweet aroma, and feel the grass grow beneath his feet When the men of the squadron have a mission that they are going on, they take turns walking through the grass and the American soil.

Like Janet said - that pulls at my heart - yanks it and tears it apart.

Sending up prayers for all those "over there" serving.
♥♥♥

how awesome - so incredible the simple things we take for granted, it's always amazing to me to see the way people cope, and so heartfelt in their actions.
how grateful i am for those willing and able to 'stand in the gap' for us at home.
Praise God for their hearts.
