Hello up there!

Remember Mike?


The one who recently graduated from Air Force Basic Training?


The guy who is taller than his buddy even when the buddy stands on the curb?


And stands at attention to talk to his 6' 2" grandfather?


Mike decided he wanted to be a linguist when he signed up for his six years. He passed the tests with flying (get it? flying? ha!) colors, and off he went to boot camp. Excuse me, basic training. The Air Force has its own way of doing things. Anyway, they wouldn't tell him what language(s) he'd be learning until after basic, and he just found out today.

Chinese.

The average man in China is 5' 5 1/2" tall. Mike is almost a FOOT taller at 6' 5". I'm thinking all he has to do is stand up and he'll intimidate the daylights out of them. Who knows what God has in store.

Be thankful ~

Karen
