The Spring Choral Concert at Crittenden Middle School, Mountain View, California, gave all who attended a bright picture of the future of America.
A friend of mine invited me to see her son perform at his local middle school's Spring Concert. The family's father is in the Marines and has recently deployed for Bahrain, where he will serve for a year.
When they learned this would be a twelve-month assignment, the family was a little stunned. But when he departed in April, they pulled together to make it work. They are now doing what military families everywhere are doing: their best to cope, to serve, and to go forward with a smile, so their loved one can do his job, and return to the arms of his family.
