Mom's Here!

So you have figured it out Gretchen. (I hope your love letters are on the way.) I am very proud of you and the adventure you are on. I know it is hard for you to be so far away from Josh and not working. (Home alone for the most part) I know how important your family and friends are to you too. Remember you can come home if for a weekend or a week. We spoke of this on the phone and you pooh-poohed it and that is good. You have a contingency plan which I or your dad would never feed you any guilt about. Meantime you do sound happy and you are on an amazing adventure and you will someday be our age and you will remember these 20 something years more fondly if you remain on the fabulous adventure. I love you!

I read your blog......Ron

I read your blog! Your 26 reasons were great. I will start thinking about 26 items for me....but it might take awhile. Since I underAlign Leftstand Meg made these rules....I wonder if the average per family is 26 ....meaning of course I would only need to come up with 21(taking credit for Meg's excesses.) Anyway I will THINK ABOUT IT. Its great hearing about you and Josh's adventures and the way you both have embraced this opportunity. Josh you are going to do great....my only advise is to take full advantage of the experience of every member of the platoon. You are in my prayers always. Have fun today with each other. Love DAD
