What's Next? - My Nephew has landed

What's Next?

Sep. 28, 2007 - My Nephew has landed

Glenn is off to the army. He is at Fort Benning (that would be Georgia for anyone not real familiar with army bases).

His folks have received one letter from him saying how much he was challenged (not his exact words.....I am putting a positive spin on it. and how sore his entire body is. I wonder if he thought it was going to be easy? He had been doing well with his preliminary PT workouts and I think he got over confident in his abilities.

I think this will be good for him. Does anyone else have family in the military? What do send to them? I want to get out some care packages to him. Any ideas? He isn't married (he is only 19) and his previous interests were skateboarding, skateboarding, oh and skateboarding.

Thanks! Have a great day.

He is Risen, Just as He said!

My best friends daughter when in the army in July and Deb send her some soap and lip balm that I had made. Oh, and a Bible. She wasn't allowed to take one with her. I seen an Army Bible on Amazon.com. You could probably find one at any book store. Just a thought.

thanks, benice. those are good, small things that I didn't think about. he is here for a while recovering from mono, bronchitis and pnuemonia. i did send an Army Bible (like the one you suggested :-)---great minds...). i never thought to ask him if he was able to take it with him. i will have to ask him when i talk to him next.

thanks again!!

A weblog that chronicles our life and times. I plan for it to include discussions on Christian home life, marriage and family, homeschooling, adoption and special needs. I am sure there will be some political discussions as well.
