Ok. I know I already posted today, but I don't care. I'm excited and must share with you all. :)
I got a letter from Aaron today! He will be a Marine this Sunday, after he finishes the crucible. And he'll graduate next Friday. How cool is that? He sounds very excited. :) AND! Sunday is Liberty Sunday, so he should get a phone call, which makes me very very excited! And, at the two week mark we were supposed to stop sending letters, because it can take so long to filter through the mail system on the island. So, I sent my last letter on Friday, which was weird. It's so weird not to spend my free time writing to him, but it's also nice, because I know we're super close to graduation!! So, he'll still receive any mail that hasn't gotten through yet and he can still send mail, but I just am supposed to stop sending it so that if it gets stuck for some reason they don't have to forward it across the country six months later when he has a more permanent address.
Anyway. He seems really excited about being done, and he still seems in really good spirits. Which makes me happy! I can't believe that in a week and a half I will be leaving to go see him! It's very exciting. I bet this will be the longest week and a half in my whole life. Haha. Thankfully, I have TONS to do so that I don't fall behind on my school work while I'm gone. :) Ok. Done.
Well, most of the time, with exceptions, I will be posting about things I'm thankful for and why. There will be deviations of course. Aren't there exceptions to every rule? Of course! So, I'll have deviations to do a particular theme or I will be thankful for something and it will carry over into more than one post, or I'll just post something random because I'm excited about it. Blogs are for fun right? Right. So, since blogs are supposed to be fun, I'll write on other things other than thankfulness sometimes. All posts will end with a Bible verse in the NKJV.
Ohmygosh SOPHIE! I'm so CITED for both of you!! lol he's totally going to be all burly and bald and stuff! :)
ReplyDeleteLol! I wish he was going to be burly. Alas, he won't. He's lost too much weight. That will come shortly after boot camp though. Hahaha. :) And he won't be bald either... They let them grow their high and tight for graduation. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm excited, too, but not looking forward to my sweet girl being away! Love you.
