NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "A hauntingly beautiful account of a family fractured by war . . . filled with vivid and heartbreaking details."--The New York Times Book Review"Full of wonderful treasures offered by a unique and spirited father . . . written with serene grace: part memoir, part love story, all heart."--James McBride, author of The Color of Water In 2005, Dana Canedy's fianc , First Sergeant Charles Monroe King, began to write what would become a two-hundred-page journal for his son in case he did not make it home from the war in Iraq. He was killed by a roadside bomb on October 14, 2006. His son, Jordan, was seven months old. Inspired by his example, Dana was determined to preserve his memory for their son. A Journal for Jordan is a mother's fiercely honest letter to her child about the parent he lost before he could even speak. It is also a father's advice and prayers for the son he will never know.
A father figure to the soldiers under his command, Charles moved naturally into writing to his son. In neat block letters, he counseled him on everything from how to withstand disappointment and deal with adversaries to how to behave on a date. And he also wrote, from his tent, of recovering a young soldier's body, piece by piece, from a tank--and the importance of honoring that young man's life. He finished the journal two months before his death while home on a two-week leave, so intoxicated with love for his infant son that he barely slept. This is also the story of Dana and Charles together--two seemingly mismatched souls who loved each other deeply and lost each other too soon. A Journal for Jordan is a tender introduction, a loving good-bye, a reporter's inquiry into her soldier's life, and a heartrending reminder of the human cost of war.

Stylish comfort you can wear all day!
Size: 6.5, Color: Chestnut
My wife has been been wearing the UGG Goldenstar Sandals for a few weeks now, and they’ve totally exceeded expectations. These sandals strike the perfect balance between comfort and style, and she’s gotten so many compliments on them!
Pros:
• Super Comfortable: The cushioned footbed feels like walking on clouds. Perfect for long days on your feet or casual outings.
• Lightweight: Unlike some chunky sandals, these are surprisingly light but still feel supportive and well-made.
• Adjustable Straps: The Velcro straps make it easy to get the perfect fit, and they’re great for swelling feet after a long day.
• Versatile Style: They look great with everything—from jeans and shorts to casual dresses.
• High-Quality Materials: Typical UGG quality—durable suede and solid construction.
Cons:
• Suede Requires Care: The upper is suede, so they’re not ideal for wet conditions and do need a bit of maintenance to keep looking fresh.
• Pricey: They’re on the higher end cost-wise, but I’d say the comfort and quality justify the price.
I’m really happy with these sandals. They’re a perfect mix of fashion and function, and I’d definitely buy them again in another color!

Best Sandal Ever
There is nothing about these that I don't LOVE. These are so comfortable and look so good. I have 6 pairs in every color. They r my absolute favorite. Run true to size. Listen to Amazon about sizing. They know... I am between size 7 and 7.5 and they recommended 7 and it was a perfect fit. I have not had any issues with the Velcro closure. Amazon has the best prices for UGGS.

Sandals that go with just about everything.
As a lover of everything Ugg, these didn't disappoint. They are some of the most comfortable shoes I have, very lightweight, and go with just about everything. They remind me of the old school Dr. Martens and I had a massive collection of those in high school. I have worn them quite a bit and you can barely tell as they are holding up extremely well.

Cute and comfortable!
Size: 6.5, Color: Chestnut
These are cute and surprisingly comfortable! My arches feel supported and the soles don’t feel as block-like as other platform style sandals!
Things to note:
The footbed liner is not made of suede and is a little slippery. It’s like a neoprene liner which was unexpected for an Ugg shoe.
Also, I only intend to wear these sandals as slides (a la Birkenstocks) so the “adjustable” Velcro strap over the top part of the foot seems useless. It doesn’t snug the top down at all, functionally speaking it is only to wear around the back of the ankle. Maybe this matters to someone thinking they could tighten the top down a bit. The ankle strap is comfortable but could be a bit
longer.
Overall they are a cute option to the platform Birks that are very uncomfortable imo. Love the options to order half sizes. I’m usually a 6 in Ugg boots but ordered my regular shoe size 6.5 and they fit well. My heel would be at the very end of my sandal
if I sized down. True to size. Keeping and will order in another color!
