Default Everyone knew I'd submit a picture!

I won't be so vain as to post the photo of my son and myself again, so here is a photo of my son and his friend who joined the Marines early this year. My son is supposed to go to Iraq in March. Military families.-luke-tc-blueswebsize.jpg

They are handsom! I might have to get some tips from them on how to make my boots shine like that! I would so be a proud mom! Ill be keeping your family in my prayers as well as all our heroes out there fighting for us! In a way I wish I had the chance to do what they are doing. I guess is was'nt meant for me.

I am thinking about sponsoring a soldier that will be working with the new
schools going up in Afghanistan. Sort of an adopted soldier type thingy .. where I send care packages for the soldier to "bond" with the people there and the kids .. boost for both sets of people!

Here's me pretending to be Seargent. He stepped out.



..and then here,s my graduation day from AIT. Our entire unit was dropped (made to do push-ups) right after graduation! I was dropped constantly. I could do 40 push-ups in under 2 minutes by the time I left. Its all good.

My son arrived home 6 months ago safe and sound. Although he accumulated 2 Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star along the way, he is in good shape, and glad to be home.

He started Graduate school at MSU this summer
