Introduction and Initiation

Welcome!
My name is Anne and I am a new Army mom.  My son Michael is a new Army recruit and is due to ship out to basic training in just a few days time.  We are full of emotions, fears hopes and dreams.  Our faith is sustaining us at this time, along with a huge amount of love and support from family and friends.
Please join us as we accompany Michael on this amazing and life changing journey.
I will be posting as often as possible, giving updates and details about Michael's life in the Army...from a mom's perspective.   No doubt there will be times when I will not share completely his whereabouts for the safety of all concerned, but I will try to be frank about how we feel.  I do hope that you will join us as we watch and wait for news.

So...here we go!
