Just got this email and thought I would share it with you guy's

Grass in a Sand Box

I hope the picture will go through for you of this Army soldier in Iraq
with his "tiny plot of! grass" in front of his tent.  It's heartwarming!

Here is a soldier stationed in Iraq, stationed in a big sand box. He asked
his wife to send him dirt (U.S. soil), fertilizer and some grass seed. When
the men of the squadron have a mission they are going on, they take turns
walking through the grass and the American soil to bring them good luck.
             

 If you notice, he is even cutting the grass with a pair of a scissors.
 Sometimes we are in such a hurry that we don't stop and think about the
 little things that we take for granted.

 Upon receiving this, please say a prayer for our soldiers that give and
 give (and give up) so unselfishly for us.

He needs a couple undocumented immigrants to mow it for him, then it would be more American.

That is unfortunately funny because it is true.
