Family day.....many tears of joy!
Liberty in Charleston SC, on Liberty St.! What a place to chow down after 13 weeks of mess hall food! He ordered a peanut butter and banana sandwich at Justine's and I thought the waitress was going to go crazy...she sounded like his mother, with a need to feed! He ate his sandwich and then more off others plates and finished off with a peach and blueberry cobbler.
When he saw the Apple store we lost him...this kid eats,sleeps breathes technology, so imagine 13 weeks without it! We bought 2 Iphone 4 to make the next separation a bit easier. 
Home and his girl in his arms, his Iphone fully charged and a movie on the computer, his heaven!
I must say I will miss the letter writing. It is quite a different thought process. It really makes you tune in to you day. I think I will find another service man to write to that needs encouragement. I know my son said so sincerely that it was the letters that kept him going.I'm going to enjoy the 10 days he has home and then try to get back to creating...it has seem to slip to the rear of things to do,but has been very missed!
Joy.........................all ways!

How wonderful to see your young son after so many months. Technology couldn't be put to a better use than to keep our service men and women close to their loved ones.
ReplyDeletePlease thank this fabulous young man for his service to our country. We are so blessed and appreciate their sacrifice more than we can say.
Warmest regards,
