Title: Not so brave today
Post by Ree on Jan 28th, 2007, 4:31pm
Could you say a prayer for those lost today in Iraq.  There was a fierce battle today in Najaf and a helicopter went down with two souls aboard.  I am waiting to hear what kind of helicopter it was.  They have recovered the remains and at least that is good.
I love you all... as I wait... love me back~~~ree

thanks all... I know you are all with me on this one... you are all as invested in my boys as I am over all these years.  Though this is a war I think we are all sick of hearing about, we know that my son is brave, strong and believes in what he does.  Every time I talk to him I am recharged.  I am in awe of his achievement, his out look and his motivation... and always without hesitation, with great sacrifice and will.  Who would have ever known that the kid I gave birth to at 17 could be such a hero.  So caring about others, so loving to his wife and family.  Thanks for always being so supportive.
I love you all   Ree

Every time I hear someone rhetorically ask "Where do these Heroes come from" I think to myself . . .the answer is; from great parents who value them, and love them, and taught them right from wrong.  Ree - you're as much a hero to us as he is.

We're praying for you ALL.

Well Sean as of now my Sean is in the Police Academy so for now he is inactive millitary.  Scott is in harms way everyday a brave replica of what I picture the American Soldier being.  He recharges me every time I talk to him and tells me not to worry. He is there.  Heart and Soul.  I am so proud.

We are hanging in there with the terrible news of crashes almost every few days... God protect them, and keep them.  

Jonny thanks for the video posts... I appreciate it... love ree
