angela (ex dil) came into the house last week and asked me why koty was digging holes in the side yard. i busted outside to really scold him for digging yet another useless hole, when i came around the corner his uncle skip was digging by this time. i asked, with hands on hips, what are you doing??? koty looked up with his never ending jaggedy smile and said i am putting this wooden cross up that i made so every day when river and me get off the bus we can say a prayer for uncle cody in iraq.
hands on hips pulled foot out of her mouth turned and quietly went back in the house wiping tears. i couldn't have loved him more at this minute.
