    Send them all! :) I laughed about you saying they are loooong. I sent a couple really long letters to my bf also and he loved them. But, he likes to give me a hard time about them being so long haha. One was really, really long and he called that a book haha. They love them! Keep writing. :)

    Defiantly send them all. I wrote every single day he was in boot too and the first one i sent out once we got the form letter was 12 pages lol. His DI made him open it up in front of him because he thought there was more than just a letter in there and then he said well i guess someone loves you and then started giving him **** but he said it was worth every second becasue reading that first letter gave him hope and then every day after that he got a letter from me and he said that it was the best time of the day and mail time is what kept him going because he knew he would always have a letter from me and it was his escape from hell. So write as much as you can it will mean a lot to him. You might get one before then though so keep checking that mail box. Once i started getting letters it made everything a lot easier. Stay strong it will be over before you know it and i hope you are gonna be abel to go to graduation it is so worth it. =)
