Here Comes the Sun and the Son!

I am so happy today- I know I’ve been off of the blog for a while more on that later- but today I just wanted to write and say how happy I am to be an American and how much I commit to serve my country and the world right along with President Obama. Nothing is stronger than love, hope, and doing what is right. It’s a new dawn- it’s a new day…. Bless all who are good and who seek to change the world for the better.

My own son came back to America on Saturday- his days in Iraq are now behind him and Hallelujah!- he came back safely and whole. He’ll be home on leave in a few weeks and out of the Army completely by the Fall- hopefully. Knowing what a strain it is for families to have their loved ones away at war -I send my love out to those whose sons and daughters, husbands and wives, fathers and mothers were not as lucky.
