He may be able to give us a tour.&nbsp;</p> <p>Otherwise, we'll see him on Labor Day, his first leave. &nbsp;We'll visit New London and let him sleep and wear his jeans.</p> <p>It's just really, really fast. &nbsp;Well, the last 22 years have been a blur. &nbsp; What should I do with myself now??</p> <p>xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-my-favorite-guys-in-the-world#post-1680318 Fri, 17 Jun 2016 03:06:23 +0000 Joyce B 1680318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab! Those are lovely picts, congrats on your son's success!<br /> It's hard to let the kids go, I wish you strength. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-my-favorite-guys-in-the-world#post-1680033 Thu, 16 Jun 2016 16:58:23 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1680033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look gorgeous, Laurie! That outfit is perfect for the day. <br />Wow, just 10 minutes to see your son after he finishes training? That seems rather extreme. He doesn't even get a day off before reporting to his first assignment? We'll be thinking of you and sending virtual hugs!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-my-favorite-guys-in-the-world#post-1680026 Thu, 16 Jun 2016 16:53:35 +0000 catgirl 1680026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aw!

Going to really need the collective YLF hug on June 27.</p> <p>Dress - BR<br />Bag - BR<br />Shoes - Steve Madden<br />Glasses - AT </p>
