Day 4 Something/Someone you are proud of...

I am proud of many things.  I am proud of how I have dealt with adversity in my life.  How I have overcome every obstacle I have encountered.  How I can always smile even though I feel like dying.  Here are the things I am MOST proud of though.

I am so proud of these little guys.  They have made me a better person.  They have taught me that there really is no point crying over spilt milk.  Or soda spilt on a freshly moped floor even.  It is amazing the life lessons you can learn from someone so small.  I only can hope they will grow up to be amazing men.

Sargent Jeffery J. Harris

He was the first of my brothers to join the military.  It wasn't a complete shock.  I feel that is has changed his life for the better.  He has made goals and so far has been able to reach them one by one.  He has such great character and I have such a strong bond with him.  Together we have had our trials and overcame each one.  He also has the love of an amazing wife that walks by his side through this journey he is on.  I love them both so very much.

PFC Brant M. Harris

He was the last of my brothers to join and that was a bit of a surprise.  His reason was to get through school.  His dreams are to finish school and that I feel is very important.  He is so funny and can make ANYONE laugh no matter what kind of mood they are in.  My boys look up to all their uncles.  He is the last single Harris so if there are any takers. 

Lance Corporal Christopher W. Harris

a.k.a. Kit

This kid has the most energy of anybody I have met in my life.  He has always been the go, go, go type.  He said boot camp was a blast for him because it was always who could be the fastest or strongest so it was nothing but a big game for him.  He also has the love and support of a wonderful woman.  He is now on deployment and we will miss him tremendously.  I can only hope for him to return safely.

I have always considered myself a patriotic person so to have all my brothers serving in the armed forces is awesome.  They are great men who only strive to be greater each and everyday.  Although they each live in different parts of the country they are always close in my heart.  I am so proud of the sacrifices they have made to defend our country.  I love them with all my heart and may God keep them all safe from harm.
