Finally got letters from my Lacey today. Kris called me at work today and said that he had received a ton of letters, so I raced home in the driving sleet, and out to the mail box. Sure enough there were three letters. I was a little nervous. I sure didn't want to hear how miserable she was...not that I wouldn't have read them. But she was so good to me. Making it sound, well almost "good". She does have her moments, and tears, and thinking of her buggie is off limits. She said she has a hard time thinking of "9 weeks" so she just thinks one day at a time, "I tell myself it's just a celebrity "Fat Camp".
She is excited to start doing Army Stuff. The last letter she wrote she was getting ready to climb a four story "victory tower". "Hey mom, do you know they shoot live rounds at us?" I'm praying hard for her every day. And she requested that we pray for her whole battalion, as there are some kids that are really struggling with being there.
I have her address, and the address of a soldier without family if any of you are interested in writing.
