Hey I just wanted to wish you a happy holiday season and i hope that you loved one gets to come home soon.

Hey, it's almost Christmas time. Are you getting excited? What did you ask for? I want gift certificates and an iPod. Christmas is my favorite time of the year. Espically since you get out of school! We get out for two whole weeks. I can't wait til next Friday! Thanks for being so strong and have a Merry Christmas!

to all the kids who are out there with parents in iraq i just want to let you all know that you're a child of a hero right now. every person that is willing to go and fight for their country in a situation like this is a hero to the united states and just letting you know that everyone here is very proud of your parents and that you're not alone here we're all behind you

hey there, you're probably sad that your parents are in iraq, and you wont spend the holidays together, but just remember that they love you and you love them and although you arent close together in person, you're still close by heart. i'll be praying for you all and have a happy holiday

Your parents are my heroes!

hi people......i am just saying i hope everyone's parents will come home if they are in Iraq.....I hope everyone has a merry christmas and a happy new year....thank you soldiers for fighting for our country.....

hello everyone whoose parents are part of the U.S. troops. Last summer while me & my family were on a trip to south dakota we stopped at starbucks to get some coffee & surf the internet. IN southdakota there are alot of u.s. troops & They were emailing their friends & family back home! It really inspired me to find a website that allows me to send letters to kids whoose parents are in the troops. So in he december issue of Seventeen magazine under the MAKE A DIFFERNCE section i saw this website so now im going to write to you & if you ever just need someone to talk to about this email me: beachkp08@yahoo.com thanks..

How the hell are bikinis holy?

It's so hard for me to even imagine what you must be feeling. But you should be so proud of what your parents do for our country! They are the everyday heros but they only know it as doing their job. They are truely all very special and we should only show our positive thoughts to keep their hopes up while they're far away doing what they do best!

you are SO strong! i couldn't imagine not having one of my parents! just remember that they are out there doing something absolutely wonderful for so many people. i know it can be hard, not knowing what's going to happen, but know that mine and so many other people's prayers are with you and your families.

Hey!! I know it sucks that your parents aren't here for the holidays, but they're definately thinking of you and missing you as much as you're missing them.There are millions of kids without parents home for the holidays, so you're not alone. I know that doesn't make the situation any better, but there are other people in your situation, or a situation worse. Try to think of the most positive thing possible or look at old family photo albums to help remember and cheer yourself up. happy holidays!!

Hey! My name is Kara and I hope that everything is going okay for you. It may be a little sad but just know that there are people who love what your parent is doing and I just want to thank you for being so strong!

I hope everything with you and your family turns out just fine. My best friend is going to war in May and im gonna miss him like crazy. Love you and stay safe and always remember pray will get you lots of places

I just wanted to say thanks for the sacrafice you and your family endure for mine. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.

Hi!!! My name is Kristen and I'm 19 years old. I hope that you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas or Happy Hannukah, or Happy Kwanzaa, whichever you celebrate. I hope you know that you're not alone, you have so many people's support. Although I don't know who you are, I'll keep you in my prayers as well as the other kids whose parent(s) are supporting our country. I just want you to know that whoever you are missing, is an amazing, brave, and caring person who is helping to protect people. God is with you through every problem that you have and he will always be by your side. Never forget that. Love, Kristen

Iam so sorry about you're parent/family member, that went to the war. I want you to know that you're family member is very appreciated and we pray for them all the time. They are doing a great thing. I know it must be very hard to deal with. But, they are over there fighting for our country, and everyone loves them for it. They are doing such a wonderful thing, they will never be forgotten. No matter what, when someone does such great things for there country, you cant forget them. They will be back soon, safe, with you and you're family. It will all be ok.

Love,
Chels

Hey, I just wanted to tell you thanks for being strong, and how great your parents are!

Hi! I'm Jamie. I'm 11 years old a girl and go to middle school. I am guessing one of your parents or family members are in the war (thats why I am writing this duh ) I know you miss them but they are doing something great for this country (as I hope you already know ) But anyways I am bored want to hear a joke. Ok its really cheesy but here is goes......
There was this guy that came home from work. He sat down and the doorbell rang. It was a beetle and it punched him in the face! So he goes to the doctor and the doctor says "There is nothing I can do..its just a nasty bug going around"
Sorry I am weird :D
Well I have to go but if you can e-mail me at please email me!!! thebeezkneez16@yahoo.com
