O/T AWESOMESON LEFT FOR AIR FORCE BASIC TRAINING YESTERDAY!!!

After an all day flight session, he's "in the army now" and read the "script" for family members to me on the phone about 1:30 a.m. from Texas!!

I'm sure he'll do GREAT!!! I am very proud!! Shows what actual PARENTING can do!!

In other news,(lack of parenting news) His Majesty the royal Prince Hygiene turns nine today!! Yesterday I took time off from work to store a few of Awesomeson's belongings. A bit sad, of course. Then I came upon the last vestages of the too numerous to mention, yet seldom-played-with (TM) toys of PH.

And an old antique school desk for preschoolers I had purchased for PH in the hopes that he'd use it to draw, do school work with (yeah right).

I packed all the remnants of PH in the car to give to the local charity. GG caught a glimpse of the desk and was like "AWWWWW, that's such a NICE piece."

UMMM PH NEVER used it; sat in it maybe once!! He barely fit into it then as all of GG's kids are HUGE for their age (Behemoth genes).

I don't even have a GARAGE to store the mass quantities of tools that GG has, let alone keep a piece of furniture that was never used!!

GAAWWWDD!!

He gave me the address to write to him EARLY this morning (like at 1:30 EST) LOL!

Please make sure you write

Please make sure you write him. That is the best getting those letters, speaking from experience it is a shock to not have a phone, internet, or any out side news. My mom wrote me every single day. I had to do a lot of push ups but it was worth it. (Just DONT SEND CARE PACKAGES when he is in basic)

letter going out today!

ditto to the don't send care

ditto to the don't send care packages. In the top 5 most embarrassing moments of my life was when my grandmother sent 6 dozens cookies to me at basic training (bless her heart)... yup, enough for everyone. The drill instructors had a field day with that one.
