She is 16. We have been writing eachother since her first letter to me at boot camp when she was 10. She still won't tell me how she knew how to get a letter to me.

Grandpa loved the letters. For a while I was just calling him every week or so, but he would ask why I haven't written. So, I stopped calling to tell him things and just wrote instead. He was happier with that. I guess it's a generational thing, and I am glad my neice ambravces it.
