I'm smiling !!!
But I will let down my guard for a minute and admit something (told hubby yesterday).
If my son goes away to college, I figure he will probably be pretty much the same kid (a little older) when he comes back.
However, I KNOW, that if he joins the service (any of them), when he comes back (just visiting), he will return as a MAN, not my boy
I'll admit, that does tear a little at this Mom's heartstrings.
Good. Keep him focused. He sounds like the kind of people we need to lead us into the future.
Tell him I'm a WAFI!!! That stands for Wind Assisted F&$@ing Idiot.
I'll be looking for him next time when I pitch pole my catamaran.
