An A? You did great Sweetheart

I’m so proud of you, you should be, proud of yourself

Yes Sweetheart,

when you were born, we had the Doctor cut off you tail

Da’ad, I told the teacher my tail had to be cut off

and she laughed

Hahahaha

We learned about centrifugal force today

and the teacher said the earth spins really fast

How do we stay on it?

Well Sweetheart, if you get up really early and go outside

and you lean towards the sun and then jump a little bit

you can just fly right off into space

Whaaat?

Da’ad, Nuh-uh…really?

Hahahaha

Dad, do you have to leave?

Yes, Sweetheart, I do

Da’ad, no, I want you here

I know Sweetheart, I want to be here too

I don’t understand

I know Sweetheart, you will

You can’t go to that park with your friend

it’s too dangerous there

Da’ad, I’ll be with my friend

No. No one there will jump in front of a bullet for you

Would you?

Yes Sweetheart, I would, you’re not going

Dad I am so mad at you right now

OK

Dad?

Yes Sweetheart

You gave that stranded woman some money,

that was really nice

I’m glad you liked it Sweetheart cause,

it was your allowance I gave her

Ahhhhh Da’ad!.....Okay

Sweetheart, you’re so pretty

Thanks Dad, I might be late, you don’t have to wait up

Yes Sweetheart, I do

Be safe and call me, I Love You

I will, I Love You Too Dad

Yes Sweetheart?

Without you Dad, I wouldn’t have ever got this far

You’ve done so much

Remember when I wanted to go with my friend to that park?

You were right Dad, thank you

Da’ad, yes Sweetheart?

You’re going to be a Grandpa.

Well, it had to happen.

Yaa’ah!

Yes Sweetheart, I’m right here,

Our ‘American’ flag

 

Our American flag is more than colors..fabric.

It’s more, than the visual a breeze imparts.

It’s more, than a phrase of allegiance.

It’s more even, than a national symbol.

Our ‘American’ flag is remembrances, rare and common.

Our ‘American’ flag carries knowledge of certain events.

The sound, unmistakable and distinct…after battle, taps.

The epiphany at it’s raising on Iwo Jima…Ground zero…Baseball game.

The length and width of us all, anywhere.

Our ‘American’ flag carries blood…Sons and Daughters, Mothers and Fathers.

Always, the sight of our ‘American’ flag will tear tears from our strongest.

Yes, Yes, our ‘American’ flag is worth dieing for.

Without remembrance, we have no essence…meaning for which to live.

With remembrance and our flag, we shall survive.
