Oh!  I know you'll miss him.....but I know that one of you needs to see your girl and you are glad he's going!  :)  That's just the way Moma and Daddy are.  :)

I'm so excited Oge....our Woodi got home from training in the middle of the night so he's back with his family in WA.  Pat and I and Courtney, his daughter, are flying out to see his family in 12 days.  :)  I woke up this morning thinking that when I hug him I must try to listen for his heartbeat.....I haven't heard that in a long long time. (He's atleast a foot taller than me so that should be easy to accomplish.)  He leaves on his fourth tour of duty in Iraq next month.  So I understand about missing one of your "chicks".  It's been about 5 years since mine were all together last.

And.....I get to spend time with 4 grandbabies while I'm there.  :)

Bless you, Oge......have a happy, safe holiday with your kiddies.  I thank God for our freedom in Christ.  Q.'

Gal 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
