I got 2 talk 2 my son!

Alas, he's back in Hawaii for a couple weeks away from Iraq. alas I get to communicate with him daily for a little while. it's been 3 months since i heard from him, finally tonight i got to talk to him on the phone for a few moments. he just got in & his wife Earma called me. we chatted briefly. i was headed home from church after a 12hr day there and i know they needed to be together for now. i'll call again tomorrow and every day after until he has to return to Iraq. he sounds good. he told me the Air Force Base here will not transfer his calls to my phone which is a bunch of BULL@#$% on the air force's part. but that's govt for you. anyway, at least for now i can talk to him. I'm happy about that. will appreciate that for now..... anyway, more soon. i'm goin' 2 crash for the night. another long day tomorrow, but shorter for sure. almost done with a projecd there-the only reason for the long day today. it's all good. I'm Happy. my son is "home"!!!

I'm so glad you got a chance to talk to your son and he's away from Iraq at least for a few weeks. Sounds like the Air Force is alot less giving than the army. Skye gets to talk to her husband at the minimum a few times a week from Iraq. He's not due home until Sept. (Hugs)Indigo

So glad to hear he's "home" - I guess with the military you have to appreciate what you can get! Have a wonderful Sunday :-)
