......THIS JUST IN.......

I received a phone call 30 minutes ago that Mark had landed in Fort Dix New Jersey. I am so excited that I had to share with every one, after all it's only 6:15 am. He will be there for a few days and his tentative date to arrive home is still the 25th. Yeah! it's such a blessing that he is here and heavenly father had answered our prayers. Madeline and I prayed really hard last night that we would here from him soon, because we haven't talked to him in a few days. He called us at 5:30 am to tell us he is state side. This next week is going to be very difficult and I am not sure I can keep it together much longer. We have all experienced the Military and how they work, and waiting is the worst especially when we don't his exact date. Don't forget about his party on the 27th and the out of towners are more than welcome to come, I just assume it might be a far drive. Well that's the latest and I will tell everyone when he arrives at the Armory for his homecomming ceremony. Were in the home strech now!
