And now, a word from our sponsors…

Welcome home sign making materials… $60
Appropriate clothes to properly welcome ones husband home in… (What Josh doesn’t know won’t hurt him.)
Seeing ones husband for the first time in months… priceless

Some things in life, money can’t buy… for everything else there’s BAH.

Now, if you will excuse me, I have to see after a soldier. He was out past curfew. Some lame excuse about orders being extended. So I said, “Well, if the Army ordered you to jump out of a perfectly good air plane…” And he said, “Yeah, used to be a paratrooper…” Still, out past curfew is out past curfew and means he needs close supervision until he learns better.

Thank you, God for the safe return of my husband. Julia Cory says it best:
"We Praise Thee, O God, Our Redeemer Creator" by Julia Cory

"We praise Thee, O God, our Redeemer, Creator,
In grateful devotion our tribute we bring;
We lay it before Thee, we kneel and adore Thee,
We bless Thy holy Name, glad praises we sing.

"We worship Thee, God of our fathers, we bless Thee;
Through life’s storm and tempest our guide have Thou been;
When perils overtake us, escape Thou will make us,
And with Thy help, O Lord, our battles we win.

"With voices united our praises we offer,
To Thee, great Jehovah, glad anthems we raise.
Thy strong arm will guide us, our God is beside us,
To Thee, our great Redeemer, forever be praise."
