Hi,
My little boy's daddy (my X husband) is in Afghanistan in the Army. He has been there for 9 months now...3 left to go.
I was thinking that some farmgirls might want to send him a card or letter of support. He's really getting tired of being there....we can tell by his emails. He says they are trying to just stay alive.
I worry and say prayers and light candles often lately.
Let me know if you could send something and I'll get the address to you.
I could even send a pic to show ya him and the fellows with him.

Sure, I'll take any you want to send my way. I love the singing cards, they are great. That would be fun for the soldiers to recieve too.

They were so excited I wanted a couple they gave me a bunch. Does anyone else want a singing card to send to Iraq? I also put one on the bar for the regulars to sign. When it gets full I'll mail it out. Does anyone have a VFW with a lounge or regular meetings? I can send some of these to you and have the groups sign them. Let me know and I will get them out to you.

I would love to send something to him, I'll email as well. We have some cards at the local VFW donated from the hallmark store. They are for birthdays but they sing. It would be rather silly of us to send a bunch of Birthday cards to someone we don't know. Every time he opens it they sing. I love these cards.

It has been weighing heavy on my mind lately that I should send letters and care packages to our soldiers, so this comes at a good time. Please count me in. It's time I sent a personal THANK YOU to all those men and women sacrificing so much of themselves so that MY family can sleep in peace at night. Thanks for posting this. Hugs~~ Tracy

Hey Linda happy to send a note/letter. Send the email too. I can do that as well. My husband's brother is headed to Iraq in Oct. Must be hard on you and your little one. (despite him being the X...know how that is) Take care of you too. |

Linda, please send me his address also. I have a friend (loving husband and father of 2 older teens) at church that came back from Iraq last fall(?) and is being deployed again so I'm assuming it's to Afghanistan since they're pulling soldiers out of I and deploying to A. Will be saying a special prayer for all of you too.
God bless -

Send me his address or his units and I'll send something. My son-in-law is a Marine and he's already served three tours in Iraq. If that war ever ends, I'm sure he'll be sent to Afganistan.
My email is tsdhoke@yahoo.com
Warmly,

I would love to send something. My nephew spent 18 months there and missed the birth of his son. I know how hard it is on the ones left behind. Please send me his address.

Hello Linda, Count me in. Send me his address by email. My youngest thinks he is going to Iraq in January but I think he's head to Afghanistan. Seems they are heating up these days. God bless you and keep you in his grace.
