little guy by. As I was about 10 feet away I heard a little voice speaking
in English to me. Hello, How are you?, What is your name?, Thank You, Good
bye. I turn around and this little man runs up to me and shakes my hand
then runs back to his Father. I felt in my pockets for some candy but had
none on me. AS I went a few more steps I wanted to do something for this
impressive little kid. So I went back on the base and picked out some candy
and a teddy bear for him. I gave his dad some sunflower seeds as well. As I
tried to speak with his father I realized that his dad spoke no English.
All the while this little guy is spoting off english word one afer another.
The Father was a taxi driver and even though he knew no English of his own
he knew it was important for his son to learn.
I believe that this is the reason the Afghans will be successful in winning
their counry back. There are a million of these little guys and girls here
in country. If we keep taking it to the enemy so that they can grow up and
get educated Afghanistan will one day stand on its own merit!

I love your blog! Thank you for doing this. I emailed it to Sean Hannady (I'm not sure I spelled his name right, but you know who I mean).
Love,
