Confessions
Summer time confessions coming. I have not been posting regularly here because I have been
But I have also been wrapped up in learning how to cope when two sons leave home for army basic training. I’m averaging writing them three letters each a week. I’m happy to receive at least one, usually two back from both of them. One son has been calling every week. The other one laughs in his letters “Phone calls? What’s a phone?” Maybe he’ll get to call Sunday. (Eternal optimist)
DId you know just how “with-it” the army is? They have photographers and chaplains that take photos of our soldiers at basic and post them on their web sites so parents can catch a glimpse of their child. Fort Benning has a forum for parents to post to each other so we can form electronic support groups. When I’m having a bad, sad day and missing the son who clipped the dog’s toenails, I can log on and find someone else who understands what this is like. When I see another parent write about their son’s deployment and their fears, I can empathize and be there for them electronically. When a parent writes and says they suddenly can’t be there for the 36 hour pass midway through the 14 week program, one of us can volunteer to adopt their child with our own. Support. Emotionally. 24/7 That’s what I love about the internet.
