As some of you recall, I posted on FB a little while back about Stephanie's friends, Lacey, and her fiance Brett, who were featured in People magazine about Brett's upcoming 3rd tour in Afganistan. There was a great article and a full page picture of them saying goodbye. Brett is a very proud Marine.

I hope this picture loads correctly; it's from People magazine when they were saying goodbye. Very tearful but a lovely photo of a very happy couple.

Tara, absolutely send a card to me. I keep missing them every day at Linda's when I pick up Riley, she says, well they just left... lol. I cannot WAIT to get my mommy hands on Brett ! Need to give that soldier a giant, HARD MOMMY HUG !! Lacey, too, but I do see her more often.. lol... I told Linda to prepare him because I WILL cry so he needs to get used to it. That's what mom's do, we CRY.

Just saw this, and I don't have to tell you how I feel about my Marines. Kel, please keep us updated on his medical progress. And when you see this young hard charger, give him a stupendous Semper Fidelis from his older brother Jim in Philadelphia. I am also going to PM you about this. Please stand by.

My 1st son Christopher who will be 21 years young in July has just joined the Marines - He finishes up at Florida Gulf Coast University in a semester and a half and goes in as an officer candidate. He has wanted to become a jet pilot since he was around six years old. I am very proud of him but in these times this is very scary for me.

Kelly, so sorry to hear that Brett was hurt, but thankful that he is okay now. Our men and women of the armed forces are phenomenal people and deserve every ounce of respect we can give them. Their families are worthy of that respect too as they have to give up their loved one to the service of our great country.

Timmy, I will continue to think lots of positive things for Christopher and his safety. Tell him that your BT friends say for him to kick ass, but to be careful in doing so.
