The magic your lil' soul creates fills me with such joy. I wouldn't be able to make it through this day without your presence being all around me...and I will tell you with the sweetest of hearts, that I will truly feel your cuddly lil' arms giving me wonderfully, tight bean squeezes all day long. I'm so proud of you and your amazing lil' legacy. You rock it in the coolest of ways my love. Blowing you smooches to tickle your belly from sunrise to sunset...I love you sweet pea xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

We appreciate the thoughtful way you lift the spirits of 
brave fighters and their families!
