Care packages

Posted on 05/16/08, 06:02 pm

I know my son tells me junk food is a big request.Also baggies is top on list to keep the sand and bugs out of opened food.I send alot of gallon size. I was also told by many moms that the soldiers have no pillows or sheets.I bought a travel pillow to send over.The sheet is next.I also collect pictures and send them.He has told me that excites him the most.

  That is wonderful to know demia. Sheets and pillows would make their stay over there better and more comfortable. If he says anything else about safety, please post it.
  thanks again

  My son loves the Healthy snacks, like granola bars. He asked me to not send so much candy and sweet stuff he would rather eat as healthy as he could gives him more energy!

This group was for mother's that wanted to aid in keep soldiers safe (equipment, news, care packages, whatever)but people have approached me about making it for families-so here we go! Also, please respect each person's opinion and advise.
