He left 8 months ago leaving his wife and girl. To try to save the world. And now he's home again thank GOD!  There should never be any war. To take a child from her father. |

Jimmy my dad was Navy for 30 years and I hate him but that's a whole other story. A good life but a suckass family. |

Ron if you are wondering why people don't come here anymore, I hope you know by now. Shut it down and be done with it. It's over and done. |

You've put so much of yourself out there with this one and I remember when so many others shared there precious Grandchildren here as well and I do appreciate your response. I do! Thank you! It hurts! Anyways, what a perfect moment caught on film of your Grandbaby, your heart, the perfect extension of you being hugged by her Daddy. WoW! Dixie, you've got to keep this one in a safe place. My son was also in the Navy, but didn't leave a wife and child at home as yours has. I've always thought it was criminal the way the armed services separate family and do it with such little compensation, but, away from that thought, it's soooooo good that he has made it home safely! You have a lot to be thankful for, my friend. Thank you, thank you so much for sharing. -Bob |
