Writing Letters

I read online how important it is for the kids at Basic Training (officially called Basic Combat Traning BCT; not bootcamp, bootcamp is the Marines!) to get mail.  They all huddle waiting for their names to be called every day at mail call.  So I thought what a bummer it would be not to hear your name.  I plan on writing him everyday.  So those of you that are reading this, please write often and send pictures if you can.  It really boost morale.  I don't have an address for him yet.  I read that they won't get an address until they start BCT.  Then within 72 hours they are supposed to send a letter with a mailing address. 

Even so, I have been writing him a letter every day since he left.  I guess he will get one big package of letters!  It has real helped me get through being without him.  

I hope to hear from him soon and check the mail box everyday as soon as the mail comes for whatever it was that he was able to send.
