So, it's the day after Sept 11th, 2011. Yesterday surprised me, how emotional it could be even 10 years later... But I had a lot to think about as well. A son who joined the Navy just this month. What will his future be like? I am so very proud of him for the the commitment he has made now, but I also worry about him. I guess that's standard for any mom, right? The whole joining the Navy surprised me but I've gotten used to the idea now. I don't pray but all I can do is keep good safe thoughts of him and hope for the best. He will have a whole new family now, beside of us and then Brittany and hers, the Navy. I hope he embraces it and strives to become the man he wants to be.
I haven't written here in several months now, and I have missed it, but I realize this will probably be a good place for me to write about my feelings as my 1st born son starts on this new path in his life. I told him just how proud of him I am before he left, and that I love him, so that he doesn't have any reason to doubt it.
I had started one or two pieces of fiction in this blog and I hope to get back to them soon, at least the main one.
More later.
