She's only 4-years old and little Paige Bennethum understands that if she lets her father go off to war, she may never see him again. Can you imagine the feeling of a 4-year old who knows that this might be the last time she ever holds the hand of her hero, the man that she loves? I can't even begin to process the feeling that she must feel.
Let us all hope and pray that Army Reservist Staff Sgt. Brett Bennethum, and the rest of the men and women serving this country, all return safely so that they can all hold the hands of the ones that they love again.
And Paige, sweetheart, I'll pray with you for your father and hope that he finds his way home to hold you again.
