Mowing
the Grass -- Priceless The picture is of an Army soldier in Iraq with his tiny 'plot' of grass in front of his tent. It's heartwarming! Here is a soldier stationed in Iraq, stationed in a big sand box. He asked his wife to send him dirt (U.S. soil), fertilizer and some grass seed so that he can have the sweet aroma, and feel the grass grow beneath his feet When the men of the squadron have a mission that they are going on, they take turns walking through the grass and the American soil -- to bring them good luck.
If you notice, he is even cutting the grass with a pair of a
scissors. Sometimes we are in such a hurry that we don't stop and
think about the little things that we take for granted. Our thanks to Arlene Wright-Correll for sharing this item with us. Visit her PhancyPages and her website. |
