As Fly Boy and I were finishing up our conversation yesterday as he was getting ready to leave he said, "Well Mom, I have to call Sprint now and have them shut off my cell phone so I don't have to pay for it while I'm gone."
About 3 hours later, I received a call and was surprised when I noticed that it his cell number showing on my Caller ID.
Me: Hullo?
Fly Boy (excitedly): MOM!!!!
Me: Oh GOOD! They changed their mind and you're not going after all!!!! Right?
Fly Boy (laughing): Yeah..I called to tell you the war's over!
WRONG! :(
They had stopped in NY to pick up some more soldiers and he noticed that his service hadn't been disconnected yet, and he just wanted to talk with his mama!
Now that's a gooooood boy!

Lisa, I don't envy you... It's about now that I get pretty glad I never had kids...especially sons, right now. Again, may he walk (and fly) under the wings of angels. Lisa :-]
ReplyDeleteAlthough this entry was short it has got to be the sweetest thing I have read in a long time. This must warm your heart. I know this will be a memory you will hold dear to your heart your entire life. My wish echoes Lisa's May angels fly with your son......and may you have an angel on your shoulder too!
ReplyDeleteAwe, gotta love that boy of yours! I'm glad he thinks to call you. How bitter sweet that he's going away but so kind and loving to you! Shana
