My Son is Home!

Yes indeed...he arrived home safely late Christmas Eve Day and I cannot think of a finer Christmas present :)  He looks great!  And he is so very happy to be home with his family.  And so are we:)  Katie's brother was present at the actual homecoming and he took some wonderful photographs.  Katie was kind enough to let me share some of them.  Mike and Katie really are as happy as they look :)

Eagerly waiting...

Finally!

Look at that little foot sticking out between them :) 

Michael...remember Daddy :) 

Ya, I do remember you :)

 The sweetest picture

 A beautiful family reunited :)

Many thanks to all of you for your good wishes and prayers for my son and his family during this deployment.  God answered them and brought Mike safely home.  For this and so many other blessings in my life, I am grateful.  

December Sunrise

I was blessed to witness this amazing sunrise very early one morning last week and it literally took my breath away.  It seems appropriate to share this on Christmas Day with my sincere wishes to each and every one of you for a blessed Christmas filled with love, family and all things good.

Harry and I are in North Carolina helping to welcome my son home from his deployment to Afghanistan.  He arrived home late Christmas Eve and I can think of no greater gift than having Mike safely home with his loving wife and precious baby boy.

Merry Christmas to All!  

My Son

My son is a 1st Lieutenant, an Infantry Officer, in the United States Marine Corps.  He left today for Afghanistan.  Harry and I pray every day for his safe return to his beautiful loving wife and precious baby boy.  We will fly this deployment flag in our son's honor until he is safely home with his family.  We are so very proud of him.

Godspeed Mike...Semper Fi
