My children are your children's ages and I can imagine that one may want to leave us and complete Israeli army service. Thanks for opening up my eyes to your world. You do it so well!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4386256495088401444.post-32544776838695190222008-05-13T11:20:00.000+03:002008-05-13T11:20:00.000+03:00So first, shame on me for assuming you child in th...So first, shame on me for assuming you child in the army was a boy. Second - I'm so glad to hear you have an intelligent child...ok, never mind. Yes, more and more I realize that no matter how long my son (or sons, actually) will be soldiers, I'll still never learn to let a day go by without that twinge of concern and worry. Please, please call me on anything I post that shouldn't be there. I honestly don't think it has happened yet, but if it does, when it does, I'll count on you and George and a few others who read this blog to tell me quickly. At one point, as I seemed to be feeling calmer, I thought of stopping the blog. I started it for me...because I really didn't want to tell Elie what I was thinking and worrying about. Now, I do tell him and he smiles and laughs at his silly mother...which really is the best way to handle my concerns. If he were to take them seriously, I'd be more concerned and he's be less of what he is.A Soldier's Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11370218893899121159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4386256495088401444.post-21857139330634804492008-05-13T10:38:00.000+03:002008-05-13T10:38:00.000+03:00Hi, she's in intelligence actually!I think that we...Hi, she's in intelligence actually!<BR/>I think that we'll all remain new at this until well after they've finished their service - whether sadir or miluim.

Like many, even after a year, I'm still new at this and know I have to watch and read before posting; read and watch always. I too wish you and your family much courage and strength and safety.
