    good Luck today... I know how you feel today and my heart just dropped when I read your post. Today is really the first day of his new life. My son has only been gone 6 days and i am still crying on a daily bases. Never sad tears for him but only tears of being so proud of the decision to serve his country. Stand strong...NMH ( Navy Mom Hug )

    I haven't written any letters yet. I just keep trying to put myself in his place. I would be a nervous mess.

    Another friend said she got the box in about a week and the first letter came about 3 days later. I am thinking by Monday.
