PHONE DATE

I have a phone date with my husband tonight at 3am thats right 3am. He has sundays off sometimes and if he calls in the morning then i miss church, see he always manages to call at 8:45 almoust time to go for me, so i end up staying and last night he called for a whole 5minutes, and told me about our date, so i said please call earlier then that so i can go to church and he agreed so we chose 3am because its 5pm for him that way when we finish talking he can go to dinner. I LOVE MY HONEY!! i miss him so much, its so hard and different without him. we have made it thru 30 days in the Middle East already, only 9 more months!!!

DAVID

well i wanted to let you all know that he has been in Iraq for a few weeks, he is really busy, he hardly ever checks his email and he calls every 4-6 days!! sucks!! He has access to phones but since he is making SARGENT!! thats right SARGENT! he has lots of meetings and what nots, and he also has a crefew for bedtime so by the time he finishes dinner and meetings is time for bed and shower, so he has not forgatten about all of you, he just doesnt have the time. im sorry.

He sleeps on a hutch, i think thats what they call it, pretty much a box with 2 beds so he shares the room with his buddy Sano, and he is getting use to the weather. i just mailed on wednesday his birthday packages, 2 of them to be presised, aperantlly the PX doesnt have much or what they have is not his favorite so i am encharged of sending him lots of things!! but he deserves everyone of them, so i do it happily!! anyways, he has been safe so far, there has not been much action and lets hope its stays that way. he will love letters and cards so if you dont have his address email me and i will pass it on!! well i know he loves everyone and misses you guys, we love ya Ana
