you will never believe what happened today =) .. I sent in a poem this last week to a Christian Radio station here in Hawaii for a contest for Chocolate and a dozen Roses for keith and guess what I WON!! LOL .. My poem was read all over Hawaii yesterday morning.. I am so happy I couldn't believe that I won I really thought it was corney myself LOL but hey oh well all that counts is I WON LOL... I enclosed the poem to you could read what I put in .. I still think it was corney LOL.. For the Love of Your Country, God and Me I sit and wait for you to come through the door at night knowing that the time is getting short with you each passing day. I think about the way you hold me and listen as I talk about the kids and my day no matter how much stress you have had you just smile and say It will all be OK. I know in my heart that its for the love of our Country, To protect our freedom and home. But it still doesn't stop the pain that I'm feeling when I sit here waiting till that time you'll return home. You are the love of my life and I thank God everyday that you were sent only to me. We have been through so much with the Death of our son and watching our other two sick but you still stand strong for the love of your country,God and Me. You are packing your things to leave us for the year and making sure everything is in place. You are going through the steps to insure we are fine giving the kids each they're time while trying to stand up for the love of your country, God and Me. As you leave next month to the far off sands know that the love that we share will stand strong. As you fight for our freedom and for the love of our country I will stay here and keep our family together and strong. So my love know that I'm here waiting till you return no matter how long that might be. I will pray for you always love you forever till that time you come back home to me. So go do your duty and do it proudly for the love of Our country, God and Me. Katy
