Today we are picking up our son from Officer Cadet Training!

Today is a wonderful, exciting day!

Our son has finished Officer Cadet Military Training today and we are picking him up to bring him home for the long weekend!  He has been away at training for the past 5 weeks and I can't wait to see him!

It was so hard to see him leave home this July for cadet training, to realize he will never live at home again.    Its so hard to raise a child for 18 years, then one day they leave to chase their dreams and they no longer live at home!


But today, I won't dwell on those feelings of sadness...today I am focusing on being able to spend time with him, to ask him how he has been and a million other questions of how he has faired over the past 5 weeks.

I have stocked the house up with his favorite foods, stocked a supply for him to take back to school (shaving cream, soap, shampoo ect), now all that's left for me to do is hug and squeeze and kiss him for 4 whole days!!!

I can't wait!
