Every boy needs a hero

Yesterday, we spent some time at the Ranch since both Ira and Sarah (Mike's cousins) were home. Aunt Jo had a special surprise for our boys. They were SO EXCITED!! And SO proud of their army garb. Nico's set is actually one of Ira's old ones! Pretty cool!
The kids pray faithfully for Ira's safety while he is in Baghdad, and while the little ones pretty much think that he is just playing with guns over there, I think Nico and Anya are starting to understand the reality of war. And having someone close to our hearts be in the middle of it, really puts a whole new perspective on it.
For all of us.
