This Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial Day is about remembering and honoring those who have served and died for our country and it's people. I also think it's about remembering those who have served and are serving. My husband being one of them. I love you, my hero. You are making the sacrifice to defend me, our nation, our fellow Americans, and I am so proud of you. There is not a day, a minute that goes by that I don't think of you and miss you with all of my heart.

What a great picture. I will be keeping you and your hubby in my prayers.

My dad was in Korea many, many years ago. I always remember him and the many men that served, and lost their lives, on Memorial Day and Veteran's Day.

Happy and safe Memorial Day to you.

Christie,

Your husband isn't defending just your nation. No, I think American soldiers fight for peace in the entire world!

Praying for you.

Most definitely Memorial Day is a day to remember, thank and pray for those that serve our country. So I thank your dear husband, Jason, for his courage and sacrifice. And I thank you Christie for *your* courage and sacrifice ~ it's not easy being the one left at home! I continue to pray for you both ~ for the Lord's protection to bring Jason safely home to you and for Him to comfort you both as only God can in your loneliness for each other.

Jason, I pray for you and Christy daily. I was an Air Force kid, and remember all the times my own father was away. Although not in the actual line of duty, he was killed in a horrible crash when taking off for Viet Nam. Today I remember him and countless others who have paid that price.

Thank you for all you are doing and will continue to do for your country, our protection, and our freedom.

Well said, Christie, you know how I agree with you!! And I think you are right about those dress blues!! (I always was a sucker for a man in a uniform!!) It does make you feel proud. :-)

You and your husband remain in my prayers!!

Every Sunday when we pray for our troops I specifically pray for you Jason as well as other times, too. What a blessing you are to me and my family! Thank you for all you are doing and the sacrifice you have made.
May the Lord protect you at all times placing his hedge around you and may He deliver you.
I love your wife and pray for her as well. God speed!
THANKS AGAIN!

My prayers will continue to be with Jason...what a wonderful picture of him- it represents all that he doing on behalf of his country.

I thank him this Memorial Day week for all of his sacrifices...and I thank you, too! Because as a spouse, you certainly sacrifice, as well.
