Boots on the Ground

Little brother is home!!

We finally got the call saying that baby bro, the MP who's been in Iraq since January, is home for some R&R. He's stateside for a couple of weeks, then back on the transport for another trip to the desert.

While he's here, we'll marvel over the 30+ pounds he's lost thanks to the heat and the Army food. We'll hug on him and be glad he's here to hug. We'll relax for the two weeks because we can.

And in two weeks, we'll be back on tenterhooks. They're moving his unit to Mosul.

Happy Independence Day to us. Sure hope this is worth it.
