Bennett loves his Uncle John. Everything about him. So you can imagine how he took the news that his Uncle (who is career Air Force) has to go to Iraq. War is so hard to explain to kids. They don't understand why everyone doesn't just sit down and talk out their differences (kinda like we make them do). This event is weighing heavily on Bennett's little mind. We pray constantly. We talk it over. And it seems he has come to some peace with it. Daddy had him make a special Powerpoint presentation for Uncle John for his computer class. I won't insert his actual slides in here...but this is the closing message Bennett wrote for him: truth is what matters and you have faith when you go to war may the force be with you!
