When we found out we would be moving to Maine, one of the first things Aaron and I thought of was that Ben would be so excited. He grew up in the Springvale/Shapleigh area of Maine. Aaron and I live less than and an hour and half away.
We had met Ben's parents, Beth and Ken, before but hadn't gotten to see them in quite some time. But Sunday was a great day to catch up. The day seemed to fly by as we shared stories about Ben. Aaron and I got to see where he grew up. We even got to see some pictures of Ben when he was little that if we could I am sure we would pick on him about!
We had a great day sharing with Ken and Beth. We are looking forward to seeing them again soon. When referring to them in the past they were always 'Ben's parents' but it is now also a privilege to call them friends.

I can't imagine ... we are so thankful for all of our military and the sacrafices they and their family make. What an emotional meeting that must have been.
