Validation
Hey, Ma; Susie called today. I've been thinking about calling her for a couple of weeks and she called this morning. She's doing okay but down with a cold which is annoying for her. I told her the biggest recent news of having Nick here with us and how that came about. She was instantly outraged by David, Serena and Chris' treatment and their "options" they gave Nick. Susie said immediately that he had no choice but to get out of there and we did right and she is convinced that you are very proud of us and of Nick, Ma. She feels there would be no question that you would have done the same and that his decision to enter the Navy is a great one. She also got a kick out of Nick scoring higher than his brother Chris and getting a chance at better training and job position. She was flabbergasted at how they were going to treat him and control his life. "He's not a teenager!" she protested. "He's a young man!" Total agreemen
