National Guard Update
When Michael went to enlist in the National Guard a few weeks ago, he was told he didn't weigh enough. He needed to gain 4-7 pounds. For the last couple of weeks he has been trying to eat more and adding protein powder to his drinks non stop. Thursday he went into the recruiters to be weighed and he had gained 8 pounds, but Boot Camp is full this summer so he will not be going yet. He should be able to Swear-in around the middle of July and start his monthly drills at the time. Boot Camp with have to wait another year. We are all a little disappointed. Michael will now be spending the summer in American Falls, where his other mother lives. She is trying to find him a job, something I'm glad I don't have to worry about.

Bummer for having to wait! I'm glad he gained some weight though. I know he had been working on it.
