The idea of blogging came when I was making a very long list of things I'm going to do over the next 7 months to keep me busy! One Marine's wife suggested blogging b/c that way everyone can read up on how Charlie is doing, what he needs, how he's feeling, without having to make 200 phone calls after a 3 minute conversation. I decided to take her advice and try it out! I will of course be making lots and lots of phone calls to friends and family over the next few months, but I figure this is great way to keep everyone in the loop! I also wanted to do this for Charlie so when he gets the chance to hop on the internet, he can check in on what's going on back home. And I also thought it would be fun for us to read through it once he gets home!
I don't know what this blog is going to morph into.... a journal? reports from the field? An open forum for family and friends? But I suppose that is the exciting thing about starting one of these!
I hope to get feedback, and comments and messages from friends and family, and I hope that you share this blog with anyone who may want to read!
What a beautiful way you have written this sweetie! Keep it up ...you will cherrish these memories for years to come.
