SEPTEMBER 4 NEWS FROM RHEANNA!
It is always so good to hear from Rheanna and what she is doing. Face Time has been wonderful for her and Adam and we hope this blog helps you in staying in touch with her also. Always know emails, letters, notes are so important to her. Just her knowing we are all thinking of her means so much and helps her get through her days.
She told us the highlight of her week was she was able to watch an Afghan soldier's trial at an Afghan Army installation. The soldier was accused of stealing ammunition from the Afghan Army. The legal system she says is much different than ours and that the judge did most of the questioning. The soldier declined a defense counsel and she said he essentially confessed to the crime. His sentence was 10 years in confinement as they take theft of weapon/ammo very serious.
Rheanna has been getting a 30 minute deep tissue massage every Friday morning for $10...she says it is great and wonders what the cost would be here in the states...She also has been telling me about the great shopping and how the little Afghan girls are very "suave" with their selling techniques. She says it just breaks your heart hearing their stories...hard not to get too involved.
Her good friends Kelly and Courtney are approaching their due dates, so she is excited for them....she asks all of us for our positive thoughts and prayers for healthy babies..more friends for Ryann
Rheanna continues to miss Ryann, Adam and of course Moose and is so excited to hear all about their day happenings....or in Moose's world, what trouble he got into...no really he has been so good..especially to Ryann Faith!
Kris and Steve left their assignment on Monday and Craig and I arrived Monday after noon...we all are busy reporting for duty!! They had a great time with Ryann and we could not believe how much she changed in the 2 weeks we were gone. She had her 6 month check up yesterday 14lbs, 10 oz...happy, healthy and in perfect condition...all went well until those darn shots, but she was tough just like her mommy.
I think I have the comment section figured out...so if you would like to add a comment at the end of the blog I am sure Rheanna would enjoy it...if you have problem yet leaving one let me know...I think I have it tho...
Rheanna - We are very proud of the sacrifice you've made and continue to make with your deployment. Looks like Ryann has Adam wrapped around her lil' finger, and of course the grandparents will spoil her rotten!!! She is definitely in good hands. Always know each day you're in our thoughts & prayers. Kevin Graffis
