For my mother Betty Rae Snipes
I don’t tell you enough how important and special you are! I love you so much and understand more every day the difficulties of parenting. I am proud of the way you and dad raised us kids and have great respect for you. As important as anything you have done for me are the things you did not do for me. Allowing me to fail from time to time to test my ability to figure out what I did wrong and learn from the experiences. I can think of several occasions growing up you let me figure things out while giving good advice all the while. I love you for that… and see many parents trying to protect their children and missing that point. I love you mother… enjoy your day.
Just got my t-shirt from the Disabled American Veterans … it says “Freedom isn’t Free”. I love those guys! Some gave a limb… some gave two… and some gave all. You should give something… even if it is just a little. They deserve your support… and remember Memorial Day is coming up. It’s not just a barbeque event.
Also… Congratulations to my friend John Lincoln Sheffield Bradham (Linc). He has received a Congressional nomination from U.S. Representative John Barrow and an appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York. Linc, lives in Pooler, Georgia and is the son of Billy and Becky Bradham. He attended Bartow Elementary, Mercer Middle School and Savannah Arts Academy. He received his high school diploma from Ablaze Academy and was awarded a HOPE scholarship and began college at Armstrong Atlantic State University at age 17. His West Point appointment was received March 11th, 2009. Linc has begun pre-training and preparing for the start of BEAST Barracks (Basic Training at West Point) which begins June 29, 2009. Good Luck Man!!! You’re gonna need it!
