I got this email from the Mom of one of my guys...thought I'd share it with ya'll.

**********************************************************************
----- Something cool that Xerox is doing

If you go to this web site, www.LetsSayThanks.com
" target=_blank rel=nofollow you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq . You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to some member of the armed services.

How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! This is a great site. Please send a card. It is FREE and it only takes a second.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these? Whether you are for or against the war, our guys and gals over there need to know we are behind them...


***********************************************************************

Hmmm...I wonder if we can do it more than once?  I'm gonna go check it out.

Hugs!
Ann

Oh, you're very welcome.  Did you look at the responses from some of the soldiers that have already received cards?  Very nice.  And at the bottom of the list, there's a link to a young Marine's recording of a really nice video.  Between listening to the words & watching the photos, I had to grab a tissue.  Very touching.

I'm so glad you're on the way to mending & that you're back home.  Stop scarying us! lol

Hugs!
