Anticipation

We left out around 6 Monday night and drove to Pine Bluff, AR. We finally found a hotel around 12 after the first one being totally booked. This hotel was sorta on the pitiful side. But, nowhere near as bad as the one the ballteam stayed in at Ferriday, LA (if anyone remembers that!!). The air conditioner did not work and it was a long 5 hour rest! But, really, who could sleep? We made it to Lawton, OK around 3 on Tuesday but, we had to pass by Fort Sill before we got to our hotel. That was really, really hard. I think I have done good up til now but, when I saw that sign, and thought that my son was behind that gate...I teared up. Now, I didn't cry. That was hard to hold back but, I didn't want Tommy to think I was a total idiot.
Sleep came early Tuesday night. We were all tired from lack of sleep the night before. But, of course we stayed up to see Idol (go Adam). Dark just would not come... It was almost 9 when darkness fell. Just as we hit the pillows, I got a call from Cody. No sleep yet!! He was excited. He was chosen as an honorary graduate. That means that he was selected out of 244 people. Only the top 10% will be awarded this honor. Like I've said before, I am so proud of Cody.
Will add more later...
