The big day

So my guy is leaving for Iraq today. He actually called for the last time on Wednesday, so I've already said goodbye, but today still sucks. He'll only be gone for 6 months. I can't wait to get my first letter from him. It will be fun to have a pen pal, I suppose. I do enjoy writing letters. (It's more fun to have a boyfriend who is not millions of miles away of course, but I'll take what I can get.)

So anyways, anyone who's reading this, please pray that he's safe and hopefully that he might enjoy his experiences there the best he can. I know he'll do his job well.

I have been thinking about you and the fact that Curtis was leaving. I have been praying for a while. Is there an address we can send letters and things too? Would Curtis want to get stuff from us?

We all love you.

I'm praying for both you and Curtis.

Hey beautiful, just wanted to let you know I'm safe and sound, sorry it took so long for me to get in touch with you. I sent a test email to you, once I'm sure that's it's your email, I'll send you a real message. I can't put too much of where I am and such on here. I miss you and love you so much and hope you are doing well in Hawaii. I'll try to call and/or write as soon as I can. Here is my address:

Sgt. Curtis Helsley
1st Radio BN Main (OCAC)
FPO AP 96426-2605

*It takes about 7-10 days for mail to get to and from here*
