I was just talking to my dad this morning about his 6 yrs. in the service...he was a navy man...Korea...USS Yellowstone...he always has great stories..i've heard them a hundred times...but today..he told a new one...a story not so about his 6 yrs, but of mom's 6 yrs..how she kept a household running with small children..how she made sure that every bill got paid...made sure that even thou he was gone..things got done..then i thought of how she took care of things when her sons went to war..how she comforted and help young wifes thru their hard times...we forget that for every soldier that answers the call...a mother...or wife..stays behind to serve..to take care of what they are fighting for...to them on this memorial day weekend i say...thank you..
