Haiku

Back in November of 2007 my brother was in Afghanistan for the first time. We stayed connected via MySpace. During this time frame one of the bulletins circulated asking you to make a haiku for your top three friends or something like that. Today I was scrolling through my brother's contacts and comments, I found the Haiku's I had posted on his page. At the time they were just me being silly but they have so much meaning now. Here they are.

First my "nice" one:

Serving our country
Sworn to protect our freedom
Keeping us safe now.


Now my personal one LOL:

My little brother,
always teasing and picking
Video games rule.


Love ya,

Jessica

That was my brother in a nutshell. He was a hero but he was my little brother too. I know I am normally a happy blogger but right now I am getting some stuff out. In a week or so I promise I will post some beautiful photos and cute duck stories. I just need some time to get back in that place.
