I'm going to try and find a new way to do slideshows if photo bucket is still not providing them.
Hope everyone is getting ready for a Merry Christmas. I know lots of our little ones and their families are involved in ways to give to other children in crisis during this Holiday season. We tip our tiaras to them!

Honoring a Military Wife with a Heart of Gold
I received a request to honor someone recently. Here's what he wrote about his wife, Yvonne:
"Hello and good day. I am active duty army stationed at ft. leonardwood mo. I was on deployment in kabul afgahinistan on Jan 2 2010 in a convoy of trucks delivering food water and medical equipment to soldiers in a remote part of kabul. My vehicle was struck by an ied. I sustained life threatining injuries to my face. It required 3 surgeries and recontruction to my nose and face. I have since been in recovery here at post. I suffered severe ptsd and severe traumatic brain injury along with both knees having torn mcl"s. I am currently still active duty and recieving treatment before being medically retired from the army. I am also recieving social security disability due to not being able to work due to my injuries.During all the trauma and worries and appointments my wife has been there for any and all times. She has gone above what would be expected of a spouse to include going to a wounded warrior summit and attending a peer mentor class and at this time is assisting wounded and ill soldiers with anything they need as a peer mentor for the wounded warrior project. My wife maintains the household and tends to the needs of our children as well as helping her brother in a time of need when he temporarly had to be a single parent of 5 children by keeping the children while he was at work and also continue to have the daily routine of school and taking care of my needs on a daily basis. At the point that everyone is settled down for the night she tends to her own schoolwork online due to not able to attend classes during the day no more. It has been a very hard struggle for the last 9 months and thru all the issues she has never giving up and continues to help others with her knowledge and caring. It would be a great honor to me to have her recognized for all she has done. Thank you and god bless as he has our family.
