At Least a Quick Blog:

JOSH GRADUATES FROM BASIC TRAINING! 
John, Kelly, Reuben, Molly and Jackie, a good buddy of Josh's and I went to Ft. Benning, Georgia to see our soldier!  He got to hang out with us for two days (after Family Day ceremony and the second day after Graduation ceremony), as long as we had him back by 8pm.  Oh it was so good to see him.  He has moved on to his AIT now, but we are planning to spend the 4th of July with him.  I could not be more proud of him.  I could not be more proud to have raised one of the 1% of American citizens that would volunteer to serve our country while it is at war.
I love you, Josh.  I am praying for you constantly!  Don't ever forget where your salvation lies... there is NOTHING more important.

We are proud of Josh. too! Hubby was in the AF for 20 years, so we have a special place in our hearts for our young troops! Congratulations to all of you.

Now, we need an update on the new family members. Been waiting!

Blessings,

Brings back many memories. Our son graduated from basic training at Ft. Benning 7 years ago. After 4.5 years in the army, he decided to get out. Now ... his next youngest brother has joined the navy. Nope. Couldn't be more proud.
