I know I'm probably behind the curve here, but are we getting Mom and Dad presents for Christmas? If so, what should I send? If something's already purchased, can I contribute some money? Mom seemed to get over her flu kind of quick...is it hitting Dad a little harder? I hate that he's so sick he didn't eat breakfast...he must really not feel well. Are you all still getting together tomorrow? I think that's so nice...I'll be there in spirit...next year, count me in. I'm attempting to get cards in the mail this week...they might actually get to your houses BEFORE Christmas...hopefully! :) I hope you're ready for Christmas...I'm still trying to get a few things for my boys...harder to buy for now that they're older! On a positive note, both got their applications/transcripts, etc into Murray and all's a go for the Fall semester. Jason's best friend from Fort Drum, Brandon, also got accepted to Murray and we're working on connections to get them all in the same room...actually, they'll know several military kids from several different posts that will be starting at the same time...kind of neat! I'm not really looking forward to the empty nest...kind of scary! Ok, I'm off to get errands done while it's not raining...I love you, Jamie
