Pins and Needles

Until the phone finally rang Sunday morning, I was on pins and needles. He just had to call, I kept telling myself, but when. When it finally rang, I picked up the phone and I immediately said Happy Birthday, and he says how did you know it was me? I didn't really, but I told him that even if it wasn't him, whoever was on the other end was going to hear those words.

This new camp sure has different rules. Only 30 minutes on the phone. I am so use to us talking for how ever long we want. He had two phone calls to make in the 30 minutes, so we cut it short. Just to hear his voice was so relieving.

Nothing special in the sand for his birthday he said, just another day.

LOL Lori!!

Sorry about the 30 minutes Stacy - I know it sucks. As long as no one is waiting in line they can talk longer - on the weekends, when I don't have to work the next day - Al will call in the middle of the night (his day) and we can talk longer.
