SUPPORT OUR TROOPS

People ask us if we ever hear from Ramsey who is currently stationed at Camp Shelby, MS. My reply is, "Not often and usually when he needs a favor."

"Hi Mom, can you do me a favor?"

"Sure, what's that?"

"Can you go to Griders and buy a dozen red roses for Mandy and take them to her at work?"

"...Sure..." (why not?) "What do you want the card to say?"

"Just because I love you."

That's how I found myself driving into town, buying red roses, driving to the next town, delivering said roses to my future daughter-in-love, and driving back home...on a day when I had no plans to leave the house.

Funny what we do for love.
