BACK IN THE SAND

Dear Gabe,

I can't believe how quickly the time has past.  This wasn't the first time we've put you on a plane en route to war torn Iraq and yet yesterday was particularly hard for both Dad and I.  It was hard on everyone.  Kim is trying to put on a front and tries to keep busy but Becca said she cried all night.  I wish she felt comfortable enough to lean on us because she is not in this vigil alone.

Take care Son, don't worry about Kimmie and the Little Guys.  They're in good hands.  6 months isn't that long really.  Remember how fast these past couple of weeks went by?  Now times it by 12... Nope, not too long at all. Till then, stay safe.

Love always,

Mom~
