Getting closer!

Well, Mom and Dad spoke to Nic and he said that the higher-ups from the unit that will replace them in Iraq are now over there getting briefed and caught up to speed on what's going on. So that's an EXCELLENT sign! He thinks that they should be back on US soil by mid-February and hopefully home to Kentucky by mid-March or thereabouts. So we're counting down! It's bad to wish our life away, but we just want him to be home safe and sound as soon as possible.

He told Mom the other day that he thought he was going crazy because he could smell a cheeseburger. So I'm going to include in my Halloween box some hamburger-shaped gummy candies. :-) Remember he's going to need extra support at Christmas as it's hard to be away from family and friends when he knows we're all celebrating. So if you could send him a Christmas card or something I'm sure it would mean the world to him.

Remember on his new address to switch out the PFC to SPC since he's a specialist now. :-) Thanks all folks!
