A Season
to everything there is a season,
a time for every purpose under the sun.
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted.
ecclesiastes 3:1-8
Hugs and prayers sweet friend. Let me know when you have and address to send him notes of encouragement. I pray God's hedge of protection around him. Patty
Dear Kim, I won't tell you it will be easy because it will not be. But I can tell you that I have learned here that you are a strong woman like me and I made it through two deployments with our son and one with my husband. Take it day by day and write him lots of letters. Send photos of the dogs and lake friends and his beautiful neice. I will keep him in my prayers.
Having never gone through what you've just experienced I cannot imagine your pain. But I can tell you that I will pray for you and all your family for his safe return. Blessings, Kim.
I too feel your pain. It's hard when they go off to do something they are passionate about, but we just have to let them go. Doesn't make it any easier though. I will pray for Shawn and your family. Before you know it, he will be walking down the aisle with his love.
I'm sure there are no words to make you feel better right now but know that there are many praying for Shawn's safe return. In the meantime, you have that beautiful little baby to help you through this difficult time. I too love his message :-)
Kim, I have no words ~ only overwhelming gratitude so I will leave someone else's words. “That’s what it takes to be a hero, a little gem of innocence inside you that maks you want to believe that there still exists a right and wrong, that decency will somehow triumph in the end.” ~ Lise Hand.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family.Please know how grateful I am for young men like Shawn who are willing to serve our country.
Love from Texas~Donna

Kim ~ I will pray for Shawn and keep him in my prayers every day. I will also send you prayers that you will feel the peace that passes all understanding. My love and my thoughts and prayers are with all of you ~ God be with you Shawn. THANK YOU for standing up for your Country and mine (Canada). May the Lord Bless all of you ~
