Holiday time can be crazy for us. Owning two businesses that peak during the
month of December sometimes causes us to lose sight of the importance of the
season. Today I received a call from one
of our regular customers, but I could tell almost immediately that he was
calling from a distance away by the delay between sides of the
conversation. Then he mentioned that he
was on deployment in Afghanistan, and he would miss Christmas with his wife and
three kids, but would be home in February. My heart slipped up to my throat and tears
were streaming down my face. I didn’t
let him know. I confirmed his order
against the list from last year, thanked him for his order and for his service
to our country.
I am humbled to be able
to assist this gentleman with his gift giving while he risks his life for our
freedom. I will remember our
conversation for a long time. God bless
you, Chris, and bring you home safely!
