I am the mother of 2 soldiers who served in Iraq, on March 7th of 2007 my oldest son was killed in Baghdad with 2 other soldiers...His wife, daughter and myself have received several quilts from different guilds and organizations in the nation. I can't tell you how much it means to us to curl up in one of these labors of love knowing that someone cared enough about us to reach out...I like to think it is their way of giving me a hug when I need it.
