Saying Good-Bye to Devin

Cute family picture
Don't you just love the cooperation from my kids?
Here are a couple candid shots I got....
Devin playing with Paige. She was just laughing so hard.
And his finally good-bye to Logan before he left. It was a precious moment.
I went to Devin and Sarah's house on Wednesday night before Devin left that next morning. Like I have said before he is going to Iraq for 18 months. I am so grateful for all those men and women that go and serve our country. Every time they leave they have to say good-bye to their families for long periods of time. So Thank You everyone that serves our country. We will see you soon Devin.
Also Devin and Sarah were put on the front page of the Daily Press. Here is the link:
Pray for Our Troops

I am glad you posted that website, Rick was telling me about it.

Its crazy to think of Devin being in Iraq....it really didnt sink in until I saw that pic of him and Sarah and him in his camo.

What a nice tribute. The last picture of him holding his son was a tear jeaker. That picture is priceless.

Thank you for sharing this tender moment. I am also grateful for all those who serve our country and the families that have to wait at home. I have also been with family when "dad" had to leave. I think everyone was crying. We pray for our troops and their families. What special pictures.
