I ordered my flag and can't wait to hang it in the window. I am so proud of your group. Glad to hear about the test. When I asked my son about it, he said he did not know how he did yet

Hi to all. I'm CR's aunt and sister to CR's mom who is a member of your group. Although I'm not a mom I am very close to my sister and am trying to help her deal with this transition. Hi to the mom of CR's redheaded friend; it sounds like you live pretty close by.

@Ginny - LOL...Well it's really good to know that they are tight as a unit. All of this good news tonight just makes me anticipate January 14th even more. I sure hope we all get to meet each other and our son's too.

Pinkaboo, he said they had more time to study than the other div's and that they "article 118'd it" he was referring to the group. He said it was a big test. He Is very proud to be in this DIV, I can hear it in his group. It sounds like they look after each other. He said they are almost too tight because they get in trouble for talking to each other too much!

@Ginny....They took a test as a unit?

I got my call too. It was pretty exciting here because we couldn't find a phone! None were hung up and he was stalling on the answering machine (he hasn't forgotten). He said their DIV was very tight, well we moms are too! He said to tell you all they took a test and they "article 118'd" it which means they "murdered" it. He sounded great! He had 3 wisdom teeth pulled and says his knee is giving him trouble and he has to go back to the Dr. tomorrow. He is going to church and serving and he wanted me to tell his Dad that. My SR has 4 younger sisters and we all were in tears when we hung up, but they were tears of joy and relief. Every one kept a smile in their voice while we were talking to him so he wouldn't worry. I can sleep tonight. Halleluia and Amen!
