Missing my boy

My son just left for boot camp on Tuesday, July 12. I miss him so much. He's my oldest and I consider us close. I have been crying ever since.

"Thank you for your reply and I'm glad that I can now try and offer some words of advice. My son has been gone for 4 weeks now. I can't believe it. He's half way finished. His first phone call to me was absolutely heart-wrenching. He…"

"I don't remember where I heard this but I was told that BMT is harder for the moms than it is for the soldiers! I can bet he is doing fine. My son leaves for BMT in 11 days and I find myself getting more and more teary & emotional every day…"
