. . . five/nineteen . . .

. . . yes, you read that right . . .
. . . drew is now out of the "twenty"s
and down to the"teen"s
of months remaining to serve . . .
. . . yesterday, i received this lovely photo . . .

. . . then another came shortly afterward titled
"crap i didn't mean to
send that last one,
but that is a building
that always
makes me think of mom" . . .
. . . such a thoughtful boy . . .
. . . it's easy to see why
i miss him so much . . .


• . . . update . . . i'm a little surprised
that drew was reminded of me
by this building . . .
{kayola . . . in regard to your question
"is it the pink or the stripes?"
the answer is yes}
. . . actually . . . it should have
made him think of
his sister amanda
who was responsible for
this awesome paint job . . .
. . . in her upstairs bedroom,
which has only recently been repainted . . .
