I'm soo happy right now. I finally got mail last night! I got a letter from Leah, one from my mother-in-law, one from my mother and six from Bekah! I was so excited! I will keep all letters and reread them over and over. It's such an encouragemen to know that so many people are praying for me.
Monday was mostly classes covering Land Navigation and compass use, map reading, etc. Yesterday, we put it into practice as we did daytime and nighttime navigation. It was actually pretty fun. Well, the night part was. For the day part I somehow got stuck with the platoon idiot. He freaked out every time he saw a spider web, insisted the sounds of insects in the air were rattlesnakes, and literally started screaming whenever he actually saw a spider. It was a mess. I couldn't keep track of my pace count because I was contanstly having to try to calm him down (without much success I might add).
God is so good! I've really felt his presence over the last few days. It's been amazing. I've been reading my Bible every day. So far I'm 20 chapters into Genesis and 25 into Matthew and will probably be a good bit further than that by tonight. I'm still also reading the Proverb of the day. Also, everytime I'm marching or walking, I find myself singing in my head. Hymns, southern gospel, and contemporary songs are all tere. Your head can be a pretty good sound system!

Bek, We will get a letter off to Sam first thing tomorrow. I'm glad he's doing well and enjoying the experience. Thanks for keeping us all updated.
