One
of my Mom’s many cousins is a Major in the Marine Corps. The first time I met
him, I was about 6 years old. I was a bit nervous at first, but quickly found
out what a fun guy he was! I still remember him sitting down to color a picture
with me that night, even though there were dozens of other people there to see
him at the party.

Over the years, he
would surprise us kids when he was on leave by coming to visit whenever we were
in Ohio visiting my grandparents. We kids absolutely loved it when he came to
visit, because he would play with us and tickle us half the night. J

One of our favorite
Christmas gifts one year was having him come and visit!

It’s
always made us feel so special to have someone in our family serving our
country in the military. Every time he returns home safe after a tour, we all
breathe a sigh of relief. We are so proud of him!
