A little about me. Joined Marines at 17, deployed twice, got married at 20, had 3 kids, medically separated at 25, degree at 29 in psych, MFT grad program at 30, heart surgery at 31, running for Congress at 32. I would love to hear about you all.

Who are you running against? I can’t remember now?

Devin Nunes

Also, his oldest brother is in the Army, deploying in Feb. It sucks. It’s scary.

Yes it is all you can do is support him and hope for the best.

We do, absolutely. Just scared about what he will encounter. Any advice for how we can help him while he’s gone? Can we send letters? Does that make them miss home more? Can we send snacks or anything?

Care packages are always nice to receive. Letters are nice too. Pictures as well are a nice thing to get. Every little thing helps.

Okay! So they will let us send things? That’s so awesome! I never know what’s allowed. It feels like we are going back to boot camp with all this. It’s a bit terrifying though. At least, in boot camp, he was safe, here at home. Now, he’ll be in a whole new country, climate.
