That would have been the perfect time to say "well marriage is very important to me and something I want in our relationship.". You got half of it out. You know this is going to come to a head soon. Time for the talk.

Yes, I wasn't 100% clear about just how important it is to me. Missed opportunity.

As I suspected, Marc wasn't able to take his driver's test in a rental car. Gabe was told over the phone by DMV that he could but that was completely incorrect. However.....Marc was misinformed in the first place! He doesn't have to have a driver's license to go to boot camp! He only needs state issued ID per his recruiter. OMG! I've been in a panic over nothing! Darned kid!

So.....one less hurdle to jump through.

We will drop him off at the hotel on 5AUG and he does his final MEPS physical exam on 6AUG and departs for Great Lakes. Less than 3 week left with my baby. frown

Think of it this way Mish, how many kids Marc's age, know what they want to do? He wants this and will be doing something he feels strongly about. I know how hard it is to let go, I deal with it too.

This will make your relationship stronger. I promise.

I'm sure it will. My heart is just a little heavy. I'll miss him so much but I'm so proud of him for working toward his goal. smile

We had Marc's going away party last night. It was wonderful for him and we had such a nice time visiting with his friend's families. His friend's parents hosted the party at their house since we don't have room for it and she and I had an enchilada throw down...per Marc's request. smile It was super fun.

That's got to be better than an enchilada throw up (you had to know I'd go there, right?) Glad you all had a great time. It'll certainly be a big change.

Wow, your baby is flying the nest. What a big step. You must be so proud of him, and I think you should be proud of you too for being a fantastic mother. Raising a boy that goes for it and fulfils his aspirations - amazing!

How did the house move go? Are you settled in?

Thank Julia! I'm a nervous wreck about it but I'm excited at the same time.

The move went ok. I still have a bunch of stuff in boxes that I haven't figured out where to put but it will get there soon.
