Someone who has never failed you and stands, no matter, by your side.
Someone who gives from their heart and brings sunshine all around,
Always smiling and laughing, never seeming down.
Have you ever watched a sunset across the ocean shore,
And been filled with love and peace, never needing more?
Have you ever listened to the wind flowing restlessy through the night?
And heard the angel's whispers helping you when you've lost sight.
Have you heard a song that moves you and sets your soul free,
And makes you feel wild and happy.
And feel so worthy inside, that you didn't care?
You see my friend heavenly creatures surround you,
So listen closely to what they say,
They'll bring you all of life's riches, as they guide you along your way.

N4moms commercial
My husband was watching t.v and sees an ad, navy sailors were dropping from a helicopter and the it said , support the Navy and N4Moms web site. Of course I missed it, darn I was food shopping. I'm so proud of this group and our members. This is a wonderful family of loving and caring people. What a great idea, and I can't wait to see it. Maria

This is a great project but make sure your council appoves be for stating. Take lots of pictures all the way thur so he can show progress. I hate school is about out classmates love to help with this. Let me know what I can do and yes I would count this comment toward 20 minutes on his project.
