I am finding it interesting what sends tears coursing down my cheeks as I go through life now. At Baseball last night, the Dad of one of Kase's team mates just retired from Active Duty and settled here in Vale. He is now one of the men who so blessed our family as he does the burial detail involving 21 gun salutes, flag folding, and the ceremony involved with a Hero Burial. When he told me that, I started to cry and just told him "Thank you so much for what you do!"
Someone sent a youtube video link that was also a good one if you need your tear ducts cleaned out.

I still keep wanting to call Dad and chat with him about how life is going. Doesn't work too well. He was always our cheerleader and supporter and had so much wisdom. My Mom came over to watch Kase in swimming lessons and at his baseball game. We have such a fun time with her and I love my Mom dearly. It is a bittersweet time though for all of us as it is in your face that Dad is not with us. We loved having Mom here and she enjoyed her time too. Just had some tearful moments.
