The story of the day is about a soldier, a medic. It is just heartbreaking. He volunteered to go to Iraq to help his friend, a newly single mom. He was the centerpiece of one of the most famous pictures of the war. He was a true hero. His tour landed him in hell. Truly tragic.
We did manage to go to the Air Expo yesterday. It was pretty miserable. Trying to keep two small children in line at a place that huge was not fun, for anyone. The children's activities (slides and bounce houses) had lines that ran about 15 minutes each. It was warmer than expected and Jameson hated the noise. Not fun. Note to self: do not try to do things like this without another adult around! We left earlier than planned, but it took us 45 minutes just to get out of the parking lot. So, we watched the Thunderbirds from the car. They were awesome.
