Snow message


I want to tell my boyfriend, Army SPC. Robert Hall, that I love him and miss him and how proud I am of him. He is serving in Balad, Iraq with the 101st Airborne Division. He woke up to find snow and wrote me this note to let me know he was thinking of me! He is on his third tour in Iraq and not a day goes by that I don't think of him and pray for his safe return.. I love you babe!

-- Kristen Storlie of Farmington, Minnesota
We are thinking of you Rob! We are so happy that you and Kristen have found each other.
