Hey Mark and Brad, I E-mailed you my vote for the podcast theme song, but just in case you didn't get it then here it is: "Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue" by Toby Keith. I really like it. It's a great song, and I hope you guys like it, too. Here's the link to listen to it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NynbLtRLisg. Have fun in your yoga class! Happy Birthday Mark.

Hello! My name is Jocelyn Green, I’m a former military wife and author of Faith Deployed: Daily Encouragement for Military Wives (Moody Publishers 2008). I wanted to tell you about the book so you could be aware of this new resource for the wives of your men. Visit www.faithdeployed.com for more information. If you are interested in seeing a copy of the book yourself, please let me know.
The book was written by 15 military wives from every branch of service and has endorsements from many national military ministries. I hope you will help me get the word out about both the book and the Web site as we support the women who support our troops the most.
Respectfully, Jocelyn

Mom also loves people and there was always someone over at our house playing music and enjoying fellowship. Mom was always having dulcimer parties and with some of her friends played weddings, church events and parties for folks. My favorite was down at my aunt Becky's house just a 1/4 mile from our home. Becky would take the whole month of May to celebrate her birthday and it would culminate with a big party called "The Strawberry Jam". I'm sure there were strawberries there but I was never real sure the origin of the name. Everyone would gather in my aunt's carport, musicians would arrive with instrument cases and chairs. There was lots of conve
I looked down the hallway at Walter Reed Hospital and saw a Veteran in his late 30s being pushed in a wheel chair. At first, it was just a normal sight at Walter Reed to see someone missing legs, but then I noticed a familiar crooked grin and a familiar hat atop his head. The hat read, Purple Heart Homes and the smile meant that it was my friend Dale Beatty. He didn't recognize me in my Army uniform and clean shaven. I looked down at him as we both waited for an elevator and I said sarcastically, "Hey son, what do you know about Purple Heart Homes?" He looked up at me and said, "I'm the co-founder and we do critical home repair for disabled Veterans!" The excitement in his voice was contagious. I smiled back and said, "I know you Dale" Then the reunion began as we rode up in the elevator and for the next 2 hours we continued in conversation, Dale, his wife Belinda and me....just reconnecting. As I was leaving that day, Dale gave me a coin
