I have two children.  Whitney is the oldest and married, with the two most precious children. Tyler, my youngest, is in basic training at Ft. Benning, Georgia. This Mother's Day was the first one that I had to choose which child to spend the day with.

I hope that Whitney will forgive me for choosing to drive to Georgia to spend Family Weekend with Tyler and some of his soldier friends.  Tyler  just completed 9 weeks of the basic training, and with 6 more weeks of AIT training ahead of him, he was really in need of a "Momma break".  Our weekend was spent mostly eating and sleeping (his request), but just being able to see his smile was worth the 15 hour drive to spend Mother's Day Weekend with him!
