A woman took a photo of her closet and posted it up to Facebook, along with a personal prayer. After the Dallas shootings that killed five police officers, she found a whole new appreciation for her own husband.
Betsy Flower Giron posted a photo of her bedroom closet where three pressed and ready police uniforms hang. The uniforms belong to her husband. She took the photo after the Dallas shootings and had a lot to say.
“Every morning I walk into our closet and see these, my husband’s police uniforms. Not many have these hanging next to their jeans and dress shirts,” began Giron. She then goes on to talk about her husband.

Giron tells how the husband, father of two and grandfather of two drives an old Mitsubishi held together by dents and duct tape so that she can drive his truck, which is in better condition. She tells about how her husband is not the stereotypical cop – he hates coffee, avoids donuts, doesn’t cuss and hates writing tickets.
Giron explains that her husband’s work day might consist of spending the day on the computer or spending the day out in the community. He has good days, bad days, heartbreaking days and days that can restore your faith in humanity.
“Sometimes I get mad at his clothes draped over the tub and his tote bag lying on the bathroom floor with his police gun inside,” Giron writes. “Long ago, when he worked deep nights, I would be awakened to the loud sound of Velcro being detached as he removed his bulletproof vest and I’d be annoyed. Today, I’m praying for those families not much unlike mine who wish they could hear that Velcro sound again.”
The touching post is going viral. The sentiments ring true to anyone who has ever had a loved one working in law enforcement.
