Journal entry:
Missing
She told me he will
Leave for Afghanistan soon,
I asked exactly
When and she said she could not
Tell me, so it is secret.
I am only his
Mother now and not privy
To things going on,
She is his wife so she knows
What I can no longer learn.
It makes me worry
No less that I am left out,
The information
I used to be the first to
Know has departed from me.
I am now banished
To the outskirts of knowledge,
He is my one child,
My failure to obtain truth
Is just a part of his growth.
I am so misplaced
In this new life of his choice,
My outstanding fault
Is the continuing need
To explain I still MISS him.

I am grateful:
1. I finished reading the Song of Solomon today.
2. Jeremy came, cleaned the gutters, and took off the trash.
3. I spent some time with Jayden.
4. We had hot dogs and French fries for supper.
5. Carrie Leigh and little Jesse came to visit.
I hope you all have had a Happy Memorial Day. Take some time to do something creative before your day ends.
Please leave me a comment to let me know your thoughts.
Always,
Jo Ann
