I have a little boy in my second/third grade Sunday School class who is very concerned about his cousin in the military. This cousin is expecting to go to Afghanistan. I tried to turn the concern into gratitutude and appreciation for Chris' service. The kids made cards (using "Loads of Love") and we sent a care package along with this card signed by each of them. What a joy it is to try to uplift others.

Oh how wonderful. Thanks for taking the time to teach the children how important it is to remember our service men. The card is just beautiful. You're are a special lady.

Fabulous card and equally fabulous service to our youth. I bought my daughter plastic soldiers and accessories to help teach her the value of service to one's country...
