To My Veteran on Veterans Day

Today is Veterans day. Most of us don't really think about today as any big deal...dont feel bad because neither did I for most my life. I think my dad described most of what I felt and what my family felt when Rob suddenly was thrown into war back in 2002 and again in 2004..."You don't really care about the game until you know someone on the team". This suddenly became true for me as a newly engaged girl and then as a new bride. As for all of our loved ones, we were all in shock. Rob, however, regardless of how we felt about the war, was true to his duty 100%. He never backed down, and was completely faithful in both of his deployments. Like so many have before, Rob has served his country faithfully. Im so grateful for him and for his sacrifices... it delayed many things in his life. However, he will tell you it gave him experiences he could have learned in no other way. Today I honor you Rob, and the many others who have served. I'm sorry that we sometimes forget the players on our team.
