Hi, do you know anything else about their demerits and sick??? my son did tell me his division is 133, Praying God for all the SR!

Hi, did you receive any other letter?? I'm worry for pnuemonia front, praying God for our SR, I received a letter on thursday, he is division is 133,

do you know anything else about their demerits?

My son called last sunday,

I have received a phone call and 3 letters and my SR hasn't said anything about problems. 

I have received the same and my SR is in 134. She called yesterday and said everything was fine and the DIV's was coming along,

Is div 133 and 134 the only divisions that are shared?

@vondaj: I'll be sure to ask in my next letter.

thanks i really do appreciate this...

We received 4 letters today, the first one made me really sad, but the others she was more like her old self.  She said she had watch and no sleep was taking a toll on her.  I can't wait to see her.  I have a countdown on my phone and every letter I write to her which is everyday and sometimes 2 a day I put the countdown on the bottom of the letter.  She thinks I'm crazy.  Probably am but that's okay. 

29 DAYS, 9 HOURS, 57 MINUTES, AND 2 SECONDS. 

Hey I have been out of town and could not respond on my phone for some reason.  I have had lots of letters, I recieved 4 on the 28, 2 the next day, 1 the day after which was Saturday and my husband called Monday and read one to me and I had one waiting on me Wednesday when I arrived home.  But she was just talking about her dog and was hoping to get to call but things keep happening and she doesn't get to call.  The last letter was dated April 1 and she said she should be able to call later and she was excited about calling but she never did call.  Bummer!!!!

Hi all. I received a letter dated the 1st and one dated the 2nd (which was my questionaire being sent back to me, answered!) His letter didn't sound as upbeat as the first one did, but still not bad. It just sounded like he was really tired. He had/has been sick and I'm sure that's worn him down. His answers on the questionaire were funny, really cracked us up and it was good to read those after reading his "it sucks" letter. LOL!

be thankful, my daughter wouldn't even call me couldnt even be the one she sent the box and form home too. her name is stephanie. haven't heard from her in two weeks

 

My birthday was Friday and I told my husband before I left for work that this day would be so much better if I could get a phone call from my SR, well no phone call but I did get a letter and a homemade bday card signed from a lot of the girls in the division. It did make me cry, imagine that! I would post it on here but it has names on it and I know that is a no no!

COUNTDOWN
18 DAYS, 23 HOURS, 55 MINUTES, 44 SECONDS

I am so ready to see my baby!!!!
