Re: Faraway Grandchild
I must learn this lovely song. My daughter married a Navy man. He's a great match for her and I'm delighted to watch them grow in their marriage year by year, but they have this crazy notion that they should take OUR grandchildren with them when the US government sends them off to some far-flung place. They're stationed in Washington, now, near Seattle--a mere 1,500 miles away. Before that, it was Charleston, SC. Before that, Guam. Before that, Pearl Harbor, HI. Before that, San Diego, which is home to all of us.
So yes, we have some experience with the faraway grandchild. Dagger, thank you for writing it.
Bren, I'm praying for your wife--and for you. God bless you both.
