<p>Hello, Ship 13! I hope everyone is well! </p>
<p>I am heading out to get my blue candle for when Battlestations happens! Hoping for a letter tomorrow! Maybe I should lite my blue candle in hopes of getting a letter too! It's been 3 weeks since I've received one. I just keep telling myself the boys are busy and it's only 10, almost 9, more days until I don't need a letter to feel connected to him. I will be able to see him with my own eyes! Oh those blue eyes! My how I love…</p>

<p>I heard from my sailor today. I was so excited to see his letter in the mailbox. He sounded so positive and is doing well. He said the hardest thing about boot camp has been being sick. Other than that he said he is doing well, and passing his tests and inspections. He was excited to receive his dress uniform, and is even more excited about seeing all of us on graduation day. My birthday is Saturday and his letter was the best present I could ask for...:) I'm so relieved to know he is…</p>

<p>Hi Cheryl!</p>
<p>Last time I heard from my SR was last Wednesday. He sounded so good. Said your SR came up to him and told him we were friends on here. :)</p>
<p>That was the last time I heard from him. His little brother got a letter and so did my husband but I didn't get one. I understand though, I know they only have a certain amount of time.</p>
<p>I did find a great card for him today! It was one of those encouragement ones but very funny!</p>
<p>Hope everyone is having a great…</p>

<p>Hi Everyone...Just checking in to see if anyone has heard from their sailor this week. I have yet to talk to mine, but have received one letter. He has talked to his brother and sister, however...which I am glad about. How is everyone doing?</p>

<p>Hello everyone,</p>

<p>I do have a question about PIR. We are taking care of my son's German shepherd while he is away and he has requested that we bring her with us to PIR. Will she be allowed on base? Does anyone have any idea what the guidelines are for dogs?</p>
<p>And speaking of phone calls, when we talked to him on Saturday he said the next scheduled call was April 10th...today! Seemed like an odd day for a phone call, but hopefully I will get to talk to him again.</p>
