We're Not Childless Anymore!




Cost of raising a son to age 18; $249,180
(Where did that number come from?)




Cost of training a soldier; $400,000
And THAT one?


Cost of a flight from Baghdad to Chicago; can't get one without a "special carrier."




Boots on the ground in your own house; PRICELESS!

We have a soldier boy home for R&R for a while! This is a great day!
