Pssst.....

Yeah, I know, I just sent you an email, but hey, if you were home I'd be talking your ear off so whats the difference?

Its 11pm.  I need to go to bed.  I need someone to change the battery in my Anniversary clock.  Its chime is so warped its pathetic.  It can't even chime past 4.  It chimes 4 times no matter what time it is.  And I think its actually starting to run slower.  Make me a promise, if the battery hasn't been changed by the time you get back here, will you please change it for me?  Of course I could change it myself, but why?  Thats why I had all of you kids!

Okay, now I'm really going to bed.  Take care of yourself and your guys.  Wear your feathers with pride and respect.  The ones on the stick were blessed by Woogie Watchetaker shortly before he passed away, as were you.  Remember that and use that inner strength.

Missing you, loving you.

A poem for Gabe,
from the Anniversary Clock

Tick tock, tick tock,
Damned it’s time to wind the clock.
But it’ll tick till you come home,
‘cause I’m convinced it knows the tone,
Of little Gabe, his laughter loud,
now a soldier, we’re so proud,
but not so proud as that old clock
that now keeps watch ,for Gabe, our rock.

You're safe, God's watching over you, as you watch over the needs of our country.
