Ten long weeks...

We leave in the morning for Ft. Leonard Wood! This is what we've been waiting so long for. September 28th seems so long ago. Speaking of "waiting so long," we've had a few discussions lately about how fast/slow the last 10 weeks have gone. Seems like for our family, it has been about the longest 10 weeks in history. Most other people say it went really quick. Either way, it's time to go to Missouri and hug my baby girl. I don't think I'll get much sleep tonight...

On a related note, I talked with Melissa yesterday. She asked for our thoughts and prayers this week. She is appearing before the promotion board of the Old Guard today. This will be her third attempt at E-7. She has been in since '98. She should know something tomorrow. Good luck Melissa!!! May the third time be your charm.
