My son is still coming home for my birthday, but his orders have been changed again. He was fitted for his flak vest yesterday, will be sent to Iraq next month, and stationed on a base outside of Baghdad that receives regular mortar attacks.
He's scheduled to stay there for 6 months, maybe more. I won't be able to breathe until he comes home.
