When my daughter was in Afganistan, I always heard stories of her adventures. She is here in the states now, but her heart is always 'somewhere else'. She works for an organazion called 'Sharpening your inner personal skills' She travels overseas some and loves it. I will be back to visit.grammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17243983087703581624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-54288842935692636582008-10-20T20:25:00.000-07:002008-10-20T20:25:00.000-07:00I want to wrap my arms around them and make it go ...I want to wrap my arms around them and make it go away. <BR/><BR/>May it make us all pause & remember them in prayer. <BR/><BR/>Blessings to you, my friend.Debra Kayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07000047547485337865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-23993543612406827142008-10-20T13:33:00.000-07:002008-10-20T13:33:00.000-07:00It hurts to read it--who can't think of those chil...It hurts to read it--who can't think of those children and not want to make all of that go away and take them home to care for them?<BR/><BR/>And while I'm noticing comments that say this is fiction I just can't see it that way--there are too many that are going through this to have it really be fiction.Scribbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03178711182424809035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-6075712442326886482008-10-20T13:22:00.000-07:002008-10-20T13:22:00.000-07:00Wow.
