Adopt a Soldier! Thank LT P

We all know LT has inspired us to be more patriotic in our day to day life. Whenever we see a man or woman in uniform, we are reminded of the great LT Peacock. We smile at these soldiers. We tell them we are thankful for them. We support them with bumper stickers and handshakes at the airport. These examples of patriotism are everywhere. This week, I was blown away by two of our own family members desire to help other soldiers as well. I am sure they were inspired by LT and his selfless act to serve the United States Army. It only makes me feel prouder to be his wife!

Calli-Ev (LT's sister) and her kids in Boston are writing letters and sending Care Packages to Korea. The 2nd ID (infantry division) will be blessed by this act later this month with many goodies!

Katherine Anne's college course at Hope College requires her to find a service that inspires her. She wants to start a pen-pal relationship with soldiers serving a deployment. She inquired with me about different organizations that would make this possible.

How amazing is this? If you too want to do something for soldiers, like LT, please do! There are so many organizations.
