Form Letter

Being with day care kids all this song came into my head today....

"We just got a letter, we just got a letter, we just got a letter. Wonder who it's from."
And that is exactly what it was. A form letter.

But now we have his address and can start sending letters. I'm super excited!!

It's only been a week.

Oh my goodness. I can't believe it's ONLY been 1 week! Really? I feel like it's been a month! I'm sure by the time it's a month I will feel like it's only been a week. I'm getting better at this emotional roller coaster but someday's it's just hard. I'm looking forward to his first letter!

So my sister lives in Santa Monica and made a trip down to San Diego to visit a friend. Her friend pulled over 5 lanes of traffic so she could get a picture of the Camp Pendleton sign. This is where Aron is at for training! I was so jealous. She was so close to him.

Swearing In~ 86 more days!!!

Aron swore in and we got to take a few pictures. Then we said our goodbyes. This was the hardest day of my life. But with prayer I know God will comfort me!

86 more days!!

The day before

All of us at dinner

Aron and his buddy Justin

Yesterday we spent the day at Castle and Coasters with the boys. It was hot but alot of fun for all of us to spend sometime together.

My son

took me on a date last night to Red Lobster! We had a great visit with each other! I'm sure going to miss him when he's gone.

5 Days

Well time is getting closer to Aron leaving. 5 days, yes, 5 short days and he will be in San Diego at bootcamp.
How am I feeling? Sad, but excited.
I'm sad to see him go but I'm happy to see him doing what he really wants to do.
I'm sad to see my son go but excited to see the man he will come back as.
Today was a reality check that he's really going. He sold his car!!
