Our Marine


After 3 months of grueling recruit training, my brother Jed is now a Marine. He finished 2nd in his class of over 400 recruits. We are very proud of him, and yet we pray earnestly that he is not called away to war -- this war specifically. Below are some pictures of us reuniting with him after one of the graduation ceremonies.

We haven't had a family photo in years ... from left:
