Moments Before....

6222452241_eaf79fc0ee_o 

 

Our soldier received the achievement medal for:

 

"MERITORIOUS ACHIEVEMENT, DISCIPLINE, INITIATIVE, ESPIRIT DE CORPS AND ENDURANCE FAR ABOVE HIS PEERS......"

 

That's my boy.     :-)

 

I am back home after spending precious time with my son and family.  Shawn now continues on his journey of serving his country.

 

Hugs have never felt better and I didn't want to let go....

 

But of course I had to.

Dena

know what your feelin , when i went to my sons graduation, it was really the proudest day of my life, I even had my 2 OTHER YOUNGER SONS COME ALSO, even though i really couldn't afford it, i thought it was important, their dad had passed away and wanted all of us to be there, to have him know how important he was , and what he accomplished was really important, in in his and our life. It Truely changed his life and he really became a man. I Want to tell your son , congrats , and thank you for serving our country, and hope he always gets the respect he deserves for doing so, And besides his mom , we all love him , and wish all the best in his military career. And he God bless him. This is such an accomplishment in his life and his family and friends also

Oh how I know your feeling of love and compassion for all the Shawn is - your son, your soldier. Kim, it is never easy to have to say goodbye when they leave to go back to where they now call home. I am so proud of Shawn - and not one bit surprised - that he was given such an honorable award. Way to go, Mr. Shawn! We love you and your family. Thinking of you each and every day....

always.
