Off to war...

Again we send Wayne off to Iraq to do what is in his heart. To protect those he leaves behind. I just want him to know how proud we all are. Wayne you are in our hearts and prayers! Come home soon!

An Ode to the American Soldier
by
Noemi Pina
An ode to all of our brave men and womenServing our country.Fighting for justice; fighting for us to remain free,Proudly defending America, our very preciousLady Liberty.Our American soldiers left for the Middle East,To fight terrorism - the man consuming beast.And behind their families they leftTheir friends, teachers, children - all of them, they left behindBut they keep them in their hearts - andEven this, death cannot unbind.Patiently, their loved ones await for their returnAs they pray and yearn;Their flame of hope in their hearts brightly burns,With every passing day of news they learn.An ode to our brave men and women,Giving their all, giving their whole,For a single great cause.An ode to them our American soldiers!
