I was going through and organizing all the mail Greg brought home that he received while he was gone...and there was a ton of it! He got numerous cards and letters from his parents, his siblings, uncles, grandmas, aunts, etc. And of course his lovely wife...ME! I sent him a letter a day while he was gone, as well as a package a week (he is a spoiled brat!! lol). He said that getting mail was the highlight of their day or week! He loved hearing about home and what was going on and also getting all the encouragement and support! He told me that at every mail call he always had at least one (usually more) pieces of mail. His drill sergeants gave him so much crap for getting so many letters and packages, but it was all in good fun, because they know those letters and packages are what give the soldiers the strength they need to keep pushing on! And now that he is off and away at AIT, he is once again getting a letter a day and package a week! He is spoiled rotten, I tell you!! And loved so very much! :)
