My knight in shining armor, even when it"s tarnished. My strong and sturdy protector, to me, you are fearless. You chased the nightmares away when I was small and afraid, Now I stand in your shadow and I feel brave. Once I fit in the palm of your hand, and now I stand on my own two feet; but still I am dwarfed by the giant I see you to be. Hug me again, and don"t let go; my small hand is enveloped in yours. When you hold me I feel safe and protected, and I know that I am loved. I love you, Daddy. My HERO, America"s HERO, you gave up your freedom for years to ensure that OUR freedom was protected, there is an HERO inside you. I eat, drink, sleep and live in peace today due to your sacrifices!!

With Love and Thanks from your family and all Free America Carl Edward Kenneth Harms
