Heard from Jake

We each got a letter from Jake today. He sounded good.  Said he's got shin splints and was put on modified light duty because of it.  He passed a test so is now an E-2.  Said this week is 'Heck-Week.' Well, you know what he really said....  He was NOT looking forward to it!!  Hopefully he's doing  well. 

He's had 2-3 asthma attacks he said, but he has just slowed down a little when it happens and has worked through them.

Sophie is writing him bits of story she's writing each letter she sends.  He was sweet enough to tell her the stories make him smile and to, "keep 'em comin'."   He told Christian to be good and to stop getting grounded LOL!!

He's allowed to invite 4 people to graduation.  He decided on us (the kids don't count in that tally, so the 4 of us only count as the 2 adults,) his ex-step-dad and the lady of the family he lived with last summer and also frequently as of lately before he left.  Her son is one of Jake's best friends.  Why SHE is invited and not the son I do NOT know...  Anyway, can't wait to see him graduate and be involved in something productive finally!!!
