The prayers are also appreciated.
Awe Robbied,
I am so sorry for the sleepless nights. Almost everyone has served in my family. Oh boy did I shed tears when my brother left for boot camp. The worry doesn't leave you till they are home again. I will say prayers for you to get some peace and comfort and be able to sleep tonight!. Also the kids were so happy to make the cards....lol After I explained to them why we were making cards for someone they didn't know.....6 an 9 years old ,they always question everything. But they will be in the mail tomorrow morning. Sending you and Nathan support and prayers!

Talking I BEE-long 2 the "Better Late Than Never Club"

So PLEASE count me in 2 !!! I wish to send a BEE-lated card to your son . I am across the country from you and seldom venture into TN's forums, but have been trying to keep updated on HIK and her new home, so that's how I came across your thread TODAY .

I would be truly honored to remember your son with this small gesture !! I will DM you for his address!

Warm regards and prayers,

~HDL~

Robbied,

I'm sorry I just came across this post. I know it's a little late but please send me your son's address. I would be honored to send him a card - even if a little late!! My son just returned from 14 months over there so I know about the sleepless nights. My son was also a gunner on a humvee in Baghdad. You and your son are in our thoughts and prayers for a safe deployment and speedy return home!!

DM his address and if there's anything special he may like to receive in a care package.

Hugs,
A Proud Army Mom

We mailed our card on 6/14/08. My wife is a Navy reserve nurse and she got a bunch from her unit in Greenville, SC to sign the card and thank him for his service. I hope he has a wonderful birthday. God Bless him.
