Saw this image and knew I had to make it to take to a friend at the ranch. Having been to the ranch 12 times I am never surprised by anything that happens. One evening in May a 4 foot California King snake decided to slither by during dinner...I lifted me feet, just in case he came my way. The next night we heard a commotion at the table next to us, a woman was choking on her dinner. The gentlemen at her table was making an attempt at the Heimlich, but was doing it totally incorrectly. At my table was my friend Kelly's husband - Mark, a fireman - we screamed 'let Mark have her he's a fireman' and within seconds he had taken over, correctly, and dislodged the item stuck....whew!! The woman didn't even remember Mark grabbing her as she was already beginning to pass out.
Made this to give to Mark when I see him....that and a 'Reserved' sign that will sit on our table holding a special place for him. Never know when a fireman will come in handy during dinner time.

Awwwww, Kush, Mark is going to be so touched that you think so specially of him! Almost sounds like he is up there in your book, with da Man, as he should be, with all those brave souls who put themselves on the line every day!
This Mo's image is so like every little boy's dream to be a fireman! Love your layout and especially the sentiment that you added to the image - such a strong statement - Mark is going to love this! You definitely have a beautiful gift for making others feel appreciated!!
