The sound of his voice

When my phone rang yesterday morning at 0500, it scared me just a little, but when I saw the unfamiliar number, I knew it was from the sand. Then I heard his voice, and he actually sounded good.

He is feeling much better, thank goodness for playstations, as I am sure that has worked wonders. LOL. We were not able to stay on long, as he was real busy. Twenty minutes is better than nothing is the way I look at it, and besides he could be at a location that he did not have any access at all to a phone. So THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR CALLING MICHAEL.

GLAD YOUR FEELING MUCH BETTER.

Yeah, I guess sometimes we take the phone calls for granted, but I know they mean a lot to all families.
Have a good weekend!

It is amazing, the toys always bring a lighter side of the soldiers out. My mom sent me water guns, waterballoons, frisbees and yo-yos. The last time I played with that stuff was when I was a KID. Gosh it brought smiles to our faces! But yes, the boys like their "big boy" toys! LOL. Your such a good mama!
