My little girl turned eighteen this year . she graduated high school and joined the marines . im very proud of her but sad because shes gone, every child hood memory flashes thru my mind , from the day she was born to her first words . the first day of school and the first time i saw her cry from a broken heart , i cherish the good times and the laughter, i regret the sad times and the father daughter fights. we drifted apart thru her early teen age years and i knew she was growing up . i also knew she still loved me and that i loved her . i pictured her as being a writer or a teacher , but never the marines. i suppose the reality never hit me untill four weeks ago when the recruiter drove off with my baby. off to boot camp then the tears started to fall. daddy can no longer hold her when she hurts , defend her when someone is hurting her. very helpless feeling , but then i turned to God . i remembered how many times he has pulled my family thru situations that i thought we couldnt handel. not real sure where my daughter stood with God i ask him to protect her thru the days to come , as i knew the boot camp was going to be far worse than she could ever expected , and some how i knew he would guide her , then the letter finally came , my little girl wrote , dear dad and mom pray for me that i might make this all right , far its very hard . i knew she had ask for Gods help and then i knew everything will be all right. i miss her so much but God take care of her . How it changed my life:i know my daughter will come home a different person , and God will still be with her
