I Wanna Be An Airborne Ranger...

I Wanna Lead A Life Of Danger!

On February 3, 2009, my stepson, my wife's BoBo the Monkey Boy, will board a bus to Dallas, there to enter into one of the world's most effective fighting forces, the United States Army.

Kids! How in the world can they do things that anger and exasperate us so much, then turn around and do something that fills us with so much pride, our hearts almost burst?

I'm sure I don't know, but God Bless them for that ability! He goes with our love, our permission, and our blessing.

He has applied for Airborne Ranger Medic. Y'all wish him well, please. With that load, he's gonna need it!

Godspeed, Boy.

Godspeed.

Update on the Wife

Dear Wife made it through the holidays without screwing up on her diet! YAY! She has lost 31+ pounds since the first of December. She's doing so good with this, and I am so proud of her.

My mother-in-law had a Lap-Band procedure on the 30th, and she's doing well, too.

Y'all offer up a prayer, or good thoughts, or just an unspoken wish for these two special ladies in my life. I'd appreciate it!

Oh, and Mom's doin' GREAT! She's been to Vegas twice since the Open-heart surgery, and now she's plannng a trip to WDW with us this summer! She really appreciates all the prayers and encouragement y'all gave her!
