My son has headed back to Fort Jackson today to finish basic training. Thursday he has a 10 mile march to complete, and from there, his training is all down hill. We are so proud of him!

His heart is still heavy due to the death of his bestfriend, Kyle, and his being unable to attend the funeral on Thursday. I wanted to cry when I read what he wrote this morning in the sympathy card that Matthew will be taking to the funeral on Thursday…

Keith, and I will be flying out to attend Reggie’s graduation ceremony in exactly two weeks. I am looking forward to our mini-vacation, and hoping to visit a few antique stores near the base while we are there.

Well friends, I could continue to go on, and on, but sadly I did not get much accomplished today, and need to think about doing some vacuuming, and starting supper, and finally, putting my nose in these textbooks. Until later…
