He'll be very, very, busy, and at times, his platoon will be up all night and sleep all day. Be sure you write him every day. DO NOT FAIL TO DO THIS. He won't get his mail the first eight days, but he'll have mail call every day after that for the rest of his time in the Marines.

I can't imagine what you're fee...Ms. Todd!! I can't imagine what you're feeling and thinking as Taylor gets ready to graduate and enlist. You and him will definitely be in my prayers. <br /><br />As for skype, it really is that simple. You just create a name, press the call button, and boom - you can see each other and talk to each other. I talk to my soldiers all the time over in Afghanistan. You do have to have certain phones to use it on there though. I think the iPhone is the only one right now that has skype. But using it on your computer is no problem as long as you have an internet connection. <br /><br />I hope God brings you peace and comfort in the coming months when Taylor leaves. And, if you ever need anything let me know! Love you bunches!!Abigail Thompsonhttp://dressherinwhiteandgold.tumblr.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299593772551172767.post-52154346612183723002011-03-12T10:17:46.506-05:002011-03-12T10:17:46.506-05:00I've used google video chat some for the kids ...I've used google video chat some for the kids to talk/see my folks and it's worked well. <br /><br />I have an iPhone and I know it has a skype app but I have never used it. <br /><br />I love technology too, so I'd be glad to help you test and figure this out. Just let me know. <br />I'm enjoying your blog.<br />KChastainKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04805753309422953453noreply@blogger.com
