TWO THINGS I JUST ASK OF YOU IS THAT ONE ~ RIGHT BEFORE YOU BEGIN YOUR FESTIVITIES PLEASE PAUSE A MOMENT TO REFLECT ON THE YEAR PAST, ON THE GOOD AS WELL AS THE BAD BECAUSE ALL OF THESE MOMENTS ARE NOW PART OF OUR MEMORIES AND HAVE HELPED US BE WHO WE ARE TODAY.

AND LASTLY PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR CINDY AS FOR ALL OUR TROOPS AND THOSE WE HAVE LOST THIS PAST YEAR AS FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE SOMEONE AS SPECIAL AS "YOU" IN THEIR LIVES.
