The anniversary came and went without one mention from me or Gabe. Most of the day I didn't even think about it since I was very busy at work. When I got home it kind of caught up to me but I was determined to just ignore it. The next night we went out to dinner and he made a comment about something (I don't remember what he heck it was now) and I said, 'You mean like yesterday?'. He stared for a minute and then it dawned on him what the date was and he said, 'sorry.'. That's it. No further discussion. Nothing.
It really put into perspective just how little the past means to him. I wish I could let go of the past completely like that. How freeing it must be! ARGH! Too many darned sentimental feelings tied to dates and things that just push my buttons.
Oh well, what is done and over is done and over and I'm moving forward! MARCH!
Marc is still on track to graduate bootcamp on 3OCT! We leave on 2OCT for Chicago and I just can't wait to see him! I've made a poster for our hotel room door and we got a challenge coin for his Ship number at the training center as well as a new watch to give him. One proud mama here!

It's Thursday - only 8 more sleeps to go for you! It will be here before you know it! The graduation ceremony for boot camp is pretty exciting and I know you are going to be so proud of your son and you will be amazed at how he has changed and matured!
7 more sleeps until I see my boy. I should be receiving a call today sometime saying 'I'm a sailor!" assuming he passed his final overnight test. I'm sure he will, he's tougher than he looks. LOL
I don't think I shared this before but I was waiting for it to be official. I'm going on an agent fam trip (that's a familiarization trip) sponsored by Korean Air to Bangkok and Seoul. 20OCT-26OCT. They have put together quite a trip and I'm super excited about it! I haven't been out of the country (except on a cruise) in a LONG time and never to Asia. YEA!

It's official! Marc is a sailor in the US Navy!!!!! He passed the final 12 hour overnight test. Brutal. If you'd like to see a synopsis of it Google battle stations 21. Intense
