I am posting this blog early because i came across a very touching article on Yahoo.com. It was titled "Little Soldier 'Girl' Didnt want to let go" Here is the link if you would like to read for yourself.

The writers name is Vince Latanzio. The article features a picture of this little girl holding her soldier dads hand while he is lining up in formation to leave to Iraq. In the article it says that the little girl did not want to let her dad go, which is completely understandable. The photo was taken by her mother and then was circulated on the internet to everyone. It got a lot of positive feedback and the family was showered with sympathy. This story was written very well. The author had a lot of sympathy for this little girl and her family. I feel like maybe he might be against the war, and this is one of his reasons. It should leave people feeling sad, of course. It makes me feel like we are there for something. Eventhough this little girl didnt want her dad to leave. He had to in order to ensure her future. My sister was in the United States Navy and i know how hard it was for me to see her go. My fiance is serving in the United States Army and i am counting the precious days until he is shipped out to this war. But i know that him and all the other moms, dads, brothers, sisters, and husbands over there know what they are fighting for, and what they have to come home to. This little girl will see just what he father did for her. We should all support our troops but we should also support the families back home who are also fighting this war.
