I went to the most amazing concert with my 14 year old daughter. We went to see County singer Trace Adkins. It was magical. I hope I never forget the feeling of looking over and seeing her rocking to “Ladies Love Country Boys” & Well All of Them. He was so ‘real” and down to earth and it was just absolutely a night to remember.
When he sang “Arlington,” I along with 1/4 of the crowd sobbed. You see him on GAC, but when you hear it live it moves you beyond words. Our soldiers are over their fighting for us. I especially was touched as my son is 22. I could be one of those military moms. Trace said, I hope my song helps those families that give so much. It does!
It was then I knew I needed to do more. I always give my books away free to military families if they write me, but what else can I do. Right now I don’t know, but I hope this concert stays with me and I can report back soon that I am doing more too.
What a concert! What a night. What a way to spend some quality time with my daughter. I knew it meant a lot to her too when after we got home she said to me, “hey mom, wanna go shopping tomorrow.” Clear the schedule, I’m there!
