He's (almost) home!!!!

Post by missy »

Just got a phone call - the USS Truman is currently off of Jacksonville, FL. After 7 months away, my son is back in US waters, and will be in port Wed! He'll be home on leave the end of June!!!

Thanks to all of you that kept him in your prayers and thoughts the past months!

well, we still "owe" him Thanksgiving dinner! He didn't get it on the Truman because he works night shift - it was all gone by the time he got up!
He's also requested Tom's grilled pork chops.

I'll also make him some cookies, etc. Nate is allergic to milk, so he can't have many ready made baked goods.

Nothing beats the relief of knowing that your kids are taken down a knotch on the worry meter. I know you are excited to see him back home! :party:

Good news. :D :party:
And whether the blood be highland, lowland or no.
And whether the skin be black or white as the snow.
Of kith and of kin we are one, be it right, be it wrong.
As long as our hearts beat true to the lilt of a song.
