The Water Cycle

Hi Buddy,

I see from Ms. Brown's newsletter that you are studying the water cycle.  It's cool to think where the drop of water that you drink might have been once upon a time.

Maybe it was in the mountains.  Maybe it was in the sea.  Maybe it was in the glaciers.  Who knows?

Love you more than a cool drink of water,
Dad

Awesome Picture!

Hi Bud,

I love your picture of Egypt!  I especially like the camel on top of the pyramid.  He must be a good climber to get all the way up there.

This will go up on my closet door with all your other great pictures.

Love you longer than it takes a camel to climb a pyramid,
Dad

Big Day!

Hi Bud,

Today is a big day!  There are only five months left in my tour in Iraq.

Five months from today, I'll be done here and headed home to you!  Sounds pretty good to me, how 'bout you?

Love you more than a 5 on a 1 to 5 scale,

Dad

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Hi Buddy,

I'm back here and safe for St. Patrick's Day.  I hope you have a great day today and remember to wear some GREEN for Ireland.

Our family likes St. Patrick's Day alot because Mom-Mom was Irish 100%.  Here's a cool picture of St. Patrick.

St. Patrick was one of the first people to explain the teachings of Jesus in Ireland.  They say that he used the shamrock (a big clover) to explain Christianity to people there.  So that's why it is a symbol of St. Patrick's Day.

Love you more than a four leaf clover,
Dad.
