My son wrote a letter this week and was telling me about some good friends there with him.From Buffalo New York-Mississippi-Florida & San Diego. he told me their names ,I would like to talk with you,I know I can't put their names on here but if you have a son in this division from these places let me know.

I looked at the pictures. My daughter said in her letter that she was carrying a flag. i wish I could zoom in or make the pic larger. I will ask her for more details about what flag she is holding etc. Due to the nature of my husbands job he might not be able to come with me to PIR. That makes me really nervous to do the airport and getting to the hotel by myself.

Just thought I send an Easter wish out to all the people here on Division 174, may we all hear soon from our loved ones and may their news always be good news.
And one last wish is that May 20th would get here faster, it still seems the days are only crawling by very, very slowly.

@Brandis mom~Just thought I would share with you that I got a letter from my dtr yesterday and she said that Brandi had received the same card in the mail from her mom. I sent an encouraging card to her and you must have sent the same one. Thought it was cute - great minds must think alike! :-) I love that our kids are supporting one another and sharing!

Tricsious, thank you so much for sharing that with me, I have not gotten a letter from Brandi this week, so hopefully on Monday, maybe the mailman just overlooked it or maybe Brandi has been busy, but it has made my Easter Sunday knowing that she is okay, please thank your daughter for letting you know. And yes, it does seem that great minds do think alike when it comes to us and our daughters with the cards.
Can't wait to meet you, thank you again for sharing this you have made me one very happy mama.

Happy Easter everyone! Today is particularly tough! I miss her everyday, but today is very emotional for some reason. I received 2 surverys back and a letter yesterday, so I got a ton of info which was fun to read! She apologized for missing Easter and upcoming Mothers Day and assured me she would make me proud! Its such bittersweet heartache to be so proud yet ache bc this is so difficult! I wish for you all a blessed Easter and I hope our loved ones are supporting and hugging eachother. May their hearts be light today!
PS~ She also assured me that the females of 173&174 pray together nightly. She knew that would give me peace and it does. Hope it does the same for some of you.

Knowing that they all support each other and pray together does give me peace as well, it is great to know that they are there for each other, when we can't be there for them.

That is awesome, I hope our daughters know each other and lean on each other for the support they would normally get from us, that they now have to rely on each other for.
Where are you from? We are from Washington State, will be flying to Chicago on the 18th for the PIR.

I got a letter from my daughter today. I posted on the PIR page but thought I would repeat it here since this is her division. She said that she got her wisdom teeth pulled and had an allergic reaction to the meds. She is feeling better now. She got a perfect score on her test and the group got their first flag. She also said that their RDC played music for them on Apr. 17th and they had an easy schedule with some free time.

Got four letters in the mail, one was really sad and depressing, but after she got it out of her system, she says she is feeling a bit better. For some reason she is getting sick to her stomach, I am thinking it is probably just stress. But thankfully at the last letter she seemed to be doing a lot better. I am proud of her and the others on what they have accomplished so far. My heart, my prayers are out to each and everyone of them.
