"The Words I Would Say"
By: Sidewalk Profits

Three in the morning,
And I'm still awake,
So I picked up a pen and a page,
And I started writing,
Just what I'd say,
If we were face to face,
I'd tell you just what you mean to me,
I'd tell you these simple truths,

Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
These are the words I would say,

Last time we spoke,
You said you were hurting,
And I felt your pain in my heart,
I want to tell you,
That I keep on praying,
Love will find you where you are,
I know cause I've already been there,
So please hear these simple truths,

Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
These are the words I would say,

From one simple life to another,
I will say,
Come find peace in the Father,

Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
Thank God for each day,
His love will find a way,
These are the words I would say

Interesting facts about me

Hey everyone! My name is Amber and I am from Kennesaw, GA. My husband graduated from boot camp at Parris Island on December 20, 2009 and is now at MCT at Camp Geiger with Golf Co. He will be graduating from there on December 29, 2009 and going to his MOS school in Pensacola.

We have been happily married since May 2007. Right now I am in my 5th and final year at Kennesaw State University doing my student teaching to get my bachelors in Early Childhood Education.

    Yes, but we were in Macon, I think you were in Atlanta. That is only an hour and a half away from us. I hope you got to talk to Ben. I am not sure, but I think they had to transfer buses at some point. I am just happy our guys are together again. It is amazing to see the bond they formed. I saw Ben's face light up when the other's started coming into the bus station and that made me so happy, knowing he would have friends with him. It made it so much easier for this mama to handle, not at all like bootcamp. image

    Hey do you know if anyone has heard from Doug--he was GaDad when our guys were recruits? I haven't seen him post nor did I see any signs of him at PI.

    hugs,
    Catherine

    No I haven't heard anything about GaDad...

    That is great you got a little letter! I got a letter from Derek too. He said he will be graduating Dec. 29th and will be coming home afterwards either for a 96 or RA he isn't sure. His school doesn't start until Jan 25th so hopefully he will get RA! I hope everything works out for your son to stay home before he heads out to his school.

    I looked at your pics and YES I did see and talk to your son at the Atlanta station. He was hanging out with my hubby and some of the other guys before I left. They were all giving him a hard time because he wasn't as skinny as he was when they left boot. lol. Derek wasn't as skinny either he put on about 5 pounds while home on his leave, but he needed it! He was way to skinny for me :)

    Yes, this send off was so much easier although when I got home and realized I was alone again it made it difficult, but it is getting back to normal life without him here again finally!

    Feel free to keep in touch, vent, ask questions or whatever you need! I am here for you!

    Hi Amber,

    Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. I did get the standard form letter yesterday from Ben, so I know that he got picked up. He is in Golf Co. and will graduate Dec. 29TH.
    He wrote a quick note that he won't start his MOS school until Jan 28Th! I think that means he will be home for almost a month!!! I am excited about that! Who knows how long it will be once he gets to school and after before he will get to come home again.

    Have you heard from Derek? Does he know when his MOS school will start? I hope you all will get alot of time together!!!

    Thank you so much for listening and offering to help me out. If you EVER need anything, don't hesitate to email or CALL me!! I mean that will all my heart. I am not working right now. I am home all day.

    huge hugs,
    Catherine

    Hi Amber,

    Ben's last name is Larsen. You know they don't call each other by their first names, if you can ask Derek if Larsen is training with him, I would so appreciate you asking him.

    I am not sure how well the mail is going to run. Ben doesn't have a cell phone, YET!! I am going to ask him to please get one once he gets to Pensacola. He left with 3 other guys from their PI platoon. I gave all their Mom's my phone number and email, but no one called or emailed me. image My fault I should have gotten their numbers, too.

    Are you using the address they said to use? I know I am asking so many questions from you, but I didn't ask enough when they were at PI and it caused me so much sadness. I hope it is okay, if it isn't please forgive me. And don't be afraid to let me know. I don't want to be know as a pest.

    Thank you so much in advance.

    huge hugs,

    Catherine

    Hey! I will definately ask Derek if your son is in his group if I get a phone call on Sunday.

    Maybe one of the guys with your son will be kind enough to let him use their phone for a little bit if they do get to make phone calls and if they have enough time.

    Don't worry about all the questions and concerns! We all have them.

    That's great that your son is going down to Pensacola for school as well! Hopefully him and Derek are friends or have atleast met that way they will have each other down there. I know that Derek knows a couple guys that are going down there already after they all finish MCT. Can't wait til they are there cause we will finally have some regular communication from them.

    I can't remember all your questions lol, but if I forgot one just ask again!

    Hope you are doing well. Email me or call me anytime!

    Hey Amber- Do you want to take a look at the slideshow and see what you can do with it. I only have 5 people (including myself) that have sent in photos so I'm getting real nervous about that. If you can still help let me know. Thanks- Laura

    We moved to North Alabama, around the Huntsville area, but in a small town-big difference from Atlanta.lol My husband works for the US Forest Service and became the District Ranger of the Bankhead National Forest. When we lived in Kennesaw we lived close to Kennesaw Mt. High School. As you will, probably, soon find out, when your husband works for the government you move around a lot. All 3 kids were born in different places, but yes, my youngest was born in Kennestone. We loved living in Kennesaw. Can't wait to meet you at the meet and greet.
