News From Basic

I have finally heard from Dayne after what has seemed like months. His moral is still high and he is definately looking forward to the quickly approaching finish line. One prayer request he had was that everyone pray for him to pass his physical tests. All the running, push-ups, sit-ups, etc have to be done in a certain amount of time and he is nervous about meeting those goals. I have no doubt that he can do it because he rises up to meet and often surpass any goal placed before him. He is also still unsure about what job he will receive and will not find out until next week. There is one in particualr that he says he might enjoy, and we are really hoping and praying that he will be assigned that job. Please pray for Dayne in these last few weeks that he will have the perserverence he needs to finish strong and be proud of all he has accomplished. Also, keep sending those letters as they help him get through each day.

As for me, I've been trying to stay busy. Last week I visited my parents for a few days and brought Megan and Tyler back home with me for a night. I've started working on some crafts and doing some sewing. Hopefully it will help the time pass by quickly.
