Pen Pals....

So today I was reminded of an experience I had in elementary school, being a pen pal.  At that time in my life it didn't seem like much of anything.  I wrote couple letters to a girl that would be moving to Arizona and would be going to my school.  Once she came we knew a little bit about each other and it made it easier for her to make friends and adjust to the new school.
You're probably thinking what reminded you of this?  My current life situation has reminded me of this.  I'm new to this whole Army Wife life and am getting ready to move to a new state that I've never been to.  Through facebook I have met other Army wives in my same situation that have basically become my pen pals.  Facebook has become this amazing resource to be able to connect with other wives whose husbands are in training with Ryan right now.  We have become each other's support group and have made it easier to  get through this hard time.
Facebook has also connected me with a family that lives in the area where we are moving to.  We haven't talked much yet, but we have talked about the area and things to do.  Facebook has become the modern source of pen pals.  I am thankful for this resource and all of the wonderful friends I've made.  I hope to keep in touch with them and I hope to meet them all someday.
To all of you wonderful ladies, Thank You for your support and Thank You for being wonderful pen pals.....
