Title: They've got our backs.....
Post by catlind on Mar 21^st, 2003, 11:27am

He's Got Our Back

I am a small and precious child,
My dads been sent to fight...
The only place I'll see his face
Is in my dreams at night.
He will be gone too many days
For my young mind to keep track.
I may be sad, but I am proud.
My daddy's got your back.

I am a caring mother.
My son has gone to war...
My mind is filled with worries
That I have never known before
Everyday I try to keep
My thoughts from turning black.
I may be scared, but I am proud.
My son has got your back.

I am a strong and loving wife,
With a husband soon to go.
There are times I'm terrified
In a way most never know.
I bite my lip, and force a smile
As I watch my husband pack...
My heart may break, but I am proud.
My husbands got your back...

I am a soldier... Serving Proudly, standing tall.
I fight for freedom, yours and mine by answering this call.
I do my job while knowing, the thank! s it sometimes lacks.
Say a prayer that I'll come home.
It's me who's got your back.

Your welcome Echo.

Although in light of my lack of qualifications to do so, perhaps I should remove it.

One very pissed off Cat

Cat, don't you DARE remove this. YOU have every right to put this up here.
BOTH countries are VERY proud of you today, my girl. Got that? You did well. In fact, you're owed an apology now. I, personally, will see that you get one, too.
Hugs

Fortunately, the message is too important, and I am too proud of America, to remove that message.

I am that wife. I have seen those children. Shown picture after picture to an infant so he didn't forget what his father looked like. I know that soldier ....

They've got our backs, and thank god they do.
