You Got Mail

On Monday I heard my ma yell “YOU GOT MAIL!!!!” Everyone has been asking if I have heard from Ryan since he arrived in MO for basic training and the last time I heard his voice was on Sunday-April 26th (the call lasted for 3 minutes and 42 seconds) ….I was on my way to church and really thought what a blessing that he called....way cool! Yesterday I got a letter stating he was doing fine but his body ache. He said they (maybe) graduate on August 7th (which my parents and I are flying to MO to watch…YAY) He also mentioned that if anyone mailed anything to him to DOUBLE make sure you put the number 3 on the back of the envelope. If you don’t do this he will have to do pushups in front of everyone (and don’t know how many times either) so if you mail Ryan……PLEASE PUT A #3 (lol) He told me to tell everyone he loved them and missed them!!!! At the end he said he was starting to cry and to be good….XOXOXOXOXOXOXO I love you and miss you ….your soldier. I sat there and cried but felt a sign of relief just because he said he was STRONG! Today, (Tuesday) I sent out a 3 page letter to him telling him how proud of him I was. I can’t wait to see him graduate and most of all I can’t wait to marry my soldier ;) I love you Ryan and miss you so much!!!
