The Soldier and the Squirrel introduces children to the Purple Heart

through a loving story of a friendship between a newly wounded soldier

and Rocky the squirrel with his backyard friends. This story began as a

blog during my first year in bed after my incident. With much

encouragement, it is now a book and has been placed in the

Ronald Reagan Presidential Library & Museum. Please watch the video

on the About page to learn for the Soldier & Rocky are changing children's

lives.

Daddy's Shirt

His little girls

with curls

slept while he was gone

His badge lands gently on the counter

it taps an echo through the hall

they hear

It lands on their cheeks

a kiss

a knowing

Daddy is home.
