Carrie, Stephen's room number is 203, he will still be on base tomorrow, Wed and Thursday hopefully they can meet up. It would be nice for them to become friends, because we are and then he can show Amber around and introduce her to some people, it can never hurt to have a friend there.

Carrie - I have been thinking about you all day, any special plans for Amber's last night home for a while? The time is going by much too quickly here, my sailor will be following her soon...

Hi Robin!

Carrie, Stephen just e-mailed me and I gave him Amber's e-mail address again and ask him to watch for her.

My son is moving off of base into a house with another sailor. I have not seen any pictures yet, don't know if I like that or not, but he seems to be happy. Also I have tried to call him and his phone seems not to be working but he said it was ok, Carrie I would give you his phone number but it never works for me. What time is her flight?

Don't worry Carrie I will and I know she will be fine, I am here for you I know what you are going through, it was very hard for me but I made it and so will you. Are you going to the plane with her? I left you a message on skype.

Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving, hope you had lots of turkey and pie!!!

Carrie it sounds like everything is coming together, I am glad. This is my second holiday we will not be spending together with Stephen, I guess this is second of many, but we are trying to skype at my mother-in-laws so the family can see and talk with him. Take care! Happy Turkey Day! Good luck shopping! Oh, we did not get Stephen's passport in time we just mailed it to him.

Sharon, I remember when Stephen came home from P-Cola he wanted to see his friends and everyone wanted to see him, I asked him to be home for dinner everynight and he did pretty good and the I took off of work and we spent the whole day together, that was the best, so Sharon I know how it is. He also went to see his sister at school so he was gone for a weekend to, I wanted all of his time (only kidding) but I got a lot of it. It was very hard for me for him to go, cried a lot but I don't cry as much as I use to but skype is a blessing, I get to see him and then I know he is ok. There are days he calls and wishes he could come home for a day or two and that makes me very sad because I know he is missing his family and friends but we talk and then we both feel better. I know he loves it and is doing great so I am very grateful to that.
Hi Robin!
I would like to wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving! Enjoy!
