A military officer sang a beautiful rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. I cried. It was beautiful and I love my country. I cried, too, because I hate what our leaders have done to us and the world these last few years. I also cried because I missed my daughter. Soooo much.

The latest batch of new Americans
Today, my husband, Shu Fan, and 48 other midwesterners were naturalized as US citizens with all the rights, liberties, freedoms, and responsibilities that come along with it. It was a very nice service, with a guest speaker and words from the judge. It was really nice, especially to see the melting pot that makes up our country.

I am not sure if this is the right word in our current state of affairs, but for lack of a better one, congrats!
First congrats to your hubby!
I agree with your concerns on the state of affairs our country is now in but that's all for another time.
Second, I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. This is a very tough road to be on and I am sorry you are on it too.
I appreciate your comment at my side. I decided to phone my friend and talk to her...unbelievably she understood what I was going thru and was so sorry she couldn't be of more assistance. It'll get better for me with time.
I'm always here if you want to chat! tractorpoor at aol dot com. Noticed you live in MO, where abouts? You can email me that one! Take care. I wish you peace while walking down this road.
