Wow!  I really hit a wall today:(  I guess the momentum of the last week or so has finally worn off.  I found myself on the verge of an anxiety attack all day -- taking deep breaths and trying to stay busy.   It's been 11 days since he left for boot camp. I know he's more than a little bit busy but I would really love to hear from him! 

I've been stalking Marine Recruit sights as well as Weather Underground to see what he is doing and what the weather is like.  Right now, it's 88 in Greenville and 86 there - so I'm glad to see that it's not scorching today.

His older brother is most likely enlisting also -- seems like they have both caught the fever.  Heads up - it could happen to you also.  I don't think you are every really ready for something like this, but I know he is doing what he wants with his life and for that I am very grateful. 

Please keep him and his friends (Cory Dismuke and Warren Dudley) in your prayers.
