I got 2 letters from my SR today. She's in Division 365. She says they are really coming together as a division, and she loves and appreciates all of them! She said that they have really learned to get along, and motivate each other. She said that Pink Eye went around first with the boys, now the girls. She's been in sick bay quite a few times recently. I guess she had an allergic reaction to something. She broke out in hives, they can't isolate what caused it. Also, she celebrated her 18th birthday while in boot camp. Everyone sang Happy Birthday to her during TAPS. It meant so much to her. She was allowed to buy face wash, hair pins and make up for her pictures. She sounds so upbeat, I'm so happy right now! I can't believe how mature she sounds in her letters!

Well, one happy grandmother here!! In my letter today, my SR sent me a hand made birthday card!! About 14 of her ship mates sent me birthday wishes. I could tell from their comments that she had been talking about me to them which really made me feel special!! ok now for all you who have loved ones in 365...Lightcap says "tell Mom I say Hi"; Mosier says my SR lightens the mood; Daley said she had heard a lot about me and I must be an amazing grandmother (Blushing with pride here);Patton says it is an honor to be shipmates with my granddaughter; Valerie W told me congrats on another birthday and thinks my SR is nice; anyway you get my drift. I even got called Ma'am! More well wishes came from Caswell(?), Ellie(Bubba), Nagel, Isom, Brousaro, Green, Duffell, Ragan! What wonderful young people!! They all had wonderful things to say and all made me smile! Hope some recognize the names and it makes you smile to know they made MY day!!
