Up, Up, And Away.....

david left for addison last night at about 5:45. the girls wanted to have lunch with him, so we did. they wanted to go to zoo-kinis. so we did. it was actually pretty good. or maybe it was just the company. well anyway, david is in addison at flight training school. he is learning first to fly the citationIV, i think. anyway i know it is some type of citation. he will be in training today and then tomorrow he has his first flight. he was supposed to have three days of training, but they scheduled a flight at the last minute. don't worry, he will be flying left seat so, he will not be in control of the airplane.

there is a saying for left seat pilots, that david taught me a long time ago. it is gear up, flaps up, shut up. that is his job for the next couple of days, months, or a year. until the cheif pilot thinks he is ready for something more. (HEY, do you think david taught me that saying for a reason?) he he he he........ anyway it is more complicated than i made it sound.

he will practice on a simulator all day today. he sounded so excited last night when i talked to him at 11:00 p.m. that is when he got to mckinney. he will be staying with his bobby and gina ( my brother and sister in law) when he is up there working. it is so sweet of them to let him stay there. thank you so much!!!!!

he will be up there for a while i think. i really don't know. i am hoping he will get to come home sometime next week, but i don't know for sure. anyway, i am so excited for him. he has waited so long for an opportunity like this. i could learn a lesson from him about patience.

so my thought are up in dallas with him today. praying for him, hoping that he is having the time of his life. i can't wait for all of the stories he will have when he comes home. they will be great. they always are.

love ya, sky king.......
