Although the ceremony was probably not as grand as your son's, when my son was commissioned as an officer the day before he graduated from Boston College, I was filled with pride but also with a deep respect for these young men and women. They are truly special individuals. May your son stay safe throughout his career. Have a very Merry Christmas.<br /><br />LaurieLaurienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-4327079141683920902010-12-15T10:46:14.919-05:002010-12-15T10:46:14.919-05:00Glad to see you Jeanne.
