Today is one of those days......... Nothing was really wrong today, just blah...... Tomorrow should be very busy... I need to take Steph to Circleville and go to Sally's and Walmart to kill an hour while she is in class (that shouldn't be a problem). Then I need to go to the YMCA to reserve the place for Dallas' birthday party! WOW! I can't believe my baby is gonna be 11yrs. old. Then of course it will be time for Steph to be 17yrs. old..... Man time flies! I don't think I will need Miranda to make any pinata's this year! LOL>>>>
Well, this morning was kind of..... idk.... sad and just made me stop and think.... We have this little girl in our morning class, her grandma brought her today and they had her cousin with him. He was dressed in his army fatigues. Then Jennifer told me he was headed for Texas~ Ft. Hood to be exact and I was like cool! Me being my dumb self.... He introduced himself to me.... Nice kid! Then they started to leave and Jennifer told him to be safe. He left the room and I said Jennifer, Texas isn't that bad! She was like, Carleta he is going to Iraq in March! I noticed the tears in her eyes.... She said, he's only 19!!! It just kind of makes everything real! I mean we see it on t.v. , we read it in the papers...... and then it hits home! I am really glad that people do what they do..... I just wish they didn't have to! So... I pray for all of our troops no matter how old they are.... God be with you!!!

Hi there! I probably didn't see him b/c I was running late (my blog tells the story)! :) Anyway, I can't imagine having your son (at any age, but especially 19) head off to Iraq!!! It certainly brings it closer to home! I think all of us moms can relate! Lord, please be with our troops and send them home safely!!!
Your blog is a reminder to pray! Thanks, girl!!!
