she said she likes going to the dentist because they have a tv there

Thats good to hear Corky...if your not going to be home maybe she can call a friend or another family member. Ouch dry socket- what do they even do for that?

jamie,
i am so glad you finally got your call.
katie called again saturday and sounded so much better than the last call.
even though she had her wisdom teeth pulled and got dry socket, and had a bad cold.
she is adjusting well to the lack of freedom.
the hardest part for her is no cell phone, texting, internet.
we are not very religious, but she has been going to church on sundays.
she said she couldn't call home on thanksgiving .
only on saturday, but we will be in mexico, out of cell range.
we are writing alot , she also said it means very much.

Thank you very much for your responses to my question about phone calls. The FedEx driver just left Phillip's box not 5 minutes ago. I took it into his room...the first time I entered his room since he left. His mom will be saddened and happy when I tell her after she gets home from work. We are getting tougher. Hope we can keep a stiff upper lip on Thanksgiving, especially when we say grace. But this will be the most meaningful Thanksgiving of my life. I dare say that's probably true for most of us new NAVY parents on this website. You all help those after you a great deal by letting us know what to expect. I'm thankful for you too.

Hi all. My son left for Boot Camp last night. I want him to succeed so much! I've underestimated him in the past and am determined not to do so now. So he'll do a great job! Am looking forward to the 30 sec call!
