Emotional Day



Today is the 1-year anniversary of my sister's death. Raise your glass to Teri Pittman.

As I write this, it has been one hour since my son just finished his last combat mission in Iraq. "Time to turn in my bullets and get outta here," he writes.

What a day. I don't know whether to cry or to cry.

It's hard to comment on these kind of posts. I just hope you're holding up ok, all things considered. Hang in there.

I can't believe a year has passed. I'm sure your sister is smiling in heaven about your son coming home.
