It's been a while

Things have been busy around here. Tucker is growing so fast. He's counting and getting funny. The Christmas lights at the local park are already up so we've been there 3x already. Tucker loves it. He's nuts about Christmas lights but so am I so he comes by it honestly. I love the Christmas season. Both for the religious and secular reason.

I get into all the regular Christmas things like corny TV specials and Santa Claus but I also don't forget the real meaning of it either. The season usually refreshes my spiritually and reminds me that I needn't worry about little things. God, love, family and friends are the only things that really matter.

I feel so bad for the troops away from their families. I know how it feels. I had a hard time in the military but the hardest part by far was being away from my family on Christmas. I had never felt so lonely and far away. Despite my feelings toward the war I do support the troops. I want them home where they can celebrate Christmas with their families and loved ones.

So, I'll let you go for right now. See ya
