Beautiful work Don and a gorgeous GD. I'd like to repeat: Keep the faith; it is going to be harder for your son being gone than for the family waiting at home for him. Try to be strong, for him and the family staying behind. My SIL just got back from Iraq in Sept and rumor has it he may go to Afghanistan next year. I pray for all our soldiers and their families; if it weren't for them who knows what kind of society we would live in.
