Hi All, is the grad pack the green pamphlet with the information about graduation, the pamphlet with hotel information and the parking pass? It came in a letter size envelope and I was expecting something in a large envelope. Did you all get the same thing or am I missing something?
-

I'll be away next week so won't be able to get my daily fix of N4M. Hang in there all who haven't gotten a letter or call yet. Hopefully, the graduation pack will be waiting for me when I get home. Have a great weekend and stay safe!

Yay!!! I got a 3 page letter yesterday. Lucas is doing well. Rita, he also had his wisdom teeth pulled and was SIQ for two days. He's having some trouble with the folding of the clothes and gets up between 12 and 3 every night to iron and fold his clothes. He thanked everyone for the letters and cards. They really make a big difference and lift his spirits. It was a very upbeat letter and I feel so much better now that I know he's doing okay.
