And he's off!

Shawn left Tuesady morning at Six am. I drove in with him, his mom and dad. We met up with his grandparents and headed to the airport around 3:30. We stayed with him until 5, when it was clear he needed to get in the security line. There were no tears shed. Not at the airport anyways. He's going to be gone until probably November sometime. 8 months. 255 days. I get to see him in May, when he graduates from Basic. Then he'll be in Texas at Lackland till August and the Dobbins AFB in Georgia for three months after that. I'll miss him, no idea what I'm going to do with out him for that long, only been two days and already I wish he was here. But he's off to serve the Country, so thats good.
