Wed, 07 May 2008 12:44:47 +0100 GraceAnn's entry on 05/07/2008 12:37 http://dailystrength.org/people/148553/journal/1035179 I had a great time while in Georgia visiting my son.  He has grown up so much in the four months since he has left.  I guess the Army has done a good job taking care of him.  He looked great.  He has packed on 15 pounds of muscle.  He loves Army life, hates the Georgia heat....
