American Soldiers

Today, I received a phone call from my stepson Michael. He's been stationed up in New York for the past two years, and got deployment orders .... He ships out for Afghanistan in two days. I have to tell you, I'm so very proud of this son!! I can remember sitting doing homework after school with him. Sometimes it was more difficult than he cared to do. And sometimes it was just too much writing! Nine times out of ten, he persevered, and now he's been studying with the Army and he is a medic. If things go according to plan, he will be there for about a year. However, he'll be home for two weeks in July to hopefully coincide with the birth of his first baby.
(PS: it's a girl !!)

Come home safe and sound to us, Michael!!
I love you!
Mom
