Mother Goose has been busily posting it all over the place this morning, and would to thank dear friend, Cathy, for sharing it with us. Cathy’s son, Nathan, is a U.S. Marine in training right now for deployment to Afghanistan. Please pray for Nathan’s safety and peace of mind for Cathy and the rest of his family.

Debra, thanks so much. Nathan is training somewhere out there by you — 29 Palms is part of Camp Pendleton, I think. Blessings on love and hope on your day, dear…

29 Palms is just a hop, skip and a jump from where I live. Since Pendleton is by the beach and 29 Palms is in the middle of the desert I am not sure they are one in the same, but I may be wrong. Not much in 29 Palms but desert. Sending prayers his way.
