Homecoming


So we drove to the gym. We waited an hour. The crowd got unruly. (It didn't help that the music was ungodly loud, there were little kids in the crowd who were exhausted, and the DJ was encouraging us to higher levels of frenzy.



Then they marched in. We all whooped and cheered. As they were dismissed to find families...we realized we were in the wrong homecoming!

No matter. It was still fun, we were in the right place, just early, and it was practice for the real thing.

Which happened.





There are still troopers from the 3d ACR whose homecomings have yet to happen. Please keep them in your prayers.

He looks good Mom! What an awesome awesome event! I don't know how wives and mothers could stay in their seats. I'd be escorted out by an MP probably.

I had a 3 min. phone call from my guy today. : )

Hurray for baby boys back home!
Praying for those who are still away.
