I've been able to communicate frequently with Stuart via email and phone. As you can see from his pictures, he is very busy. My favorite picture is the one above where the young Marine is looking up to his CO. Stuart continues to assure me him and the Marines of 3/5 are successful in their missions. The deployment continues to move forward with good news of a tentative homecoming of late April/early May. I continue to support his efforts here at home. I've been quite busy myself with work, the Key Volunteer Network and the upcoming Holidays. I'm set to run my next half-marathon on January 20, 2008. I've been trying to fill up as much of my free time as possible and I think I may need to slow down just a bit. Stuart and I are very excited about 2008 and most of all, we look forward to spending time at home together.
