Visit with Uncle Chad

My brother came to see us in May. Uncle Chad has officially become a Marine. He is finishing his last year at Virginia Military Institute and then will move on to his assignment in the Marines. We're lucky to see Chad maybe twice a year, so when he came for a week we were thrilled.



The boys love to wrestle with all their uncles and Uncle Chad is no exception. They spent a lot of time wrestling each morning. One great thing about my brother is that he cares so much about all his nephews. When he calls he wants to know how they are, what they have been doing, how school is, etc... all the details. I appreciate the interest he takes in them, it makes them feel special. He even mailed them a letter from Office Candidate School telling them about what he's been doing in terms they understand. I am grateful for the relationships my boys can develop with their family.
