A call from afar
I had a major surprise today...my brother who is an Air Force Para Jumper stationed in Afghanistan right now called out of the blue to wish me an early birthday. He's been overseas away from his family for a couple of months now and it's been so hard on all of them to be apart. I have so much respect for him and other servicemen & women who sacrifice to maintain our freedoms. What a blessing that I have such an amazing brother who not only serves this country but serves his family as well. I can only hope and pray that his time in Afghanistan will pass by quickly and safely so that he might return to his family, as well as all of the other soldiers who are stationed overseas. Thanks for the great birthday surprise Anthony and keep up the good work. Love you lots.
