David Called!


After a three week delay due to a paperwork issue, David has finally moved on and is able to start Basic Training. He only had a minute to talk and give me his mailing address. If anyone would like to send him an encouraging note, please email me at: sc19045@charter.net

He sounded good and is so ready to get this part behind him! Thank you all for you continued thoughts and prayers. We miss David terribly, but are so very proud of him!!

Oh this picture is precious!
Monica! I have missed so many posts! My bloglines have not showed any updates so I had no idea!
I've been thinking of you and I'm so glad I stopped by just to see if by any chance you had posted recently! That'll teach me to trust my bloglines!

Monica,

I would be happy to send your boy a note! You hang in there during these weeks. They are hard on us moms too! I think you need a few notes!

How great that he had some time to call, and that he thought of calling. Good, considerate guy you've got there.
Hope the rest of your week flies by until you can talk again.
Love

Monica-

Finally got a chance to stop by. LOVE Thos cheeks on your little one. And I am glad to hear the good news about your son. You are one brave mommy. I am not sure I could handle my "baby" going away, and then not talking to him for so long. I pray all goes well and time flies!! :)

Monica,
I haven't checked your blog in a while, but now I can pray for you. Becky had said David was coming to Fort Jackson, but I didn't know when. We are only 40 minutes away. Maybe Ellie will be home when you come see David and we can meet you somewhere.
Take care and I'll pray for all of you!
