BACK IN B POD

I remember the first time that we went to Coconino County to visit Micah. There was barf in the hallway by the trash can. We were so excited to finally see Micah after two months of trying to arrange calls and writing letters. the girl at the front desk told us he was in a-pod. I was really nervous and started to giggle and said they have a-pod, b-pod, and c-pod, but no i-pod. She agreed that it was pretty funny.
This visit was much more relaxed and I felt much better visiting. At least now we have a good idea of what to expect and what is going to happen with his life. When we visit now he is freer to talk about his case and what is going on for him.
He told me about his first memory when he got to jail ten months ago. He was put in a cell with a kid who was being very mouthy and talkin smack to Micah. He just ignored him and went on with what he had to do. Later on in the evening the news came on and they were all watching. The news was still sensationalizing the killing that had landed Micah there. The kid looked at Micah, looked at the T.V., looked back at Micah, and back at the T.V. left the room for a minute. He returned with some tuna and crackers and offered them to Micah! He is still learning lessons and how his life will be for the next few years.
The good part is he can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Now he knows that he will get out before he is 30 and that he needs to make some plans and goals for his future. It is great to hear him talking about those plans and goals again.
Letters are still much appreciated and if you are feeling generous he would appreciate magazine subscriptions. Thanks to all for the continued support and prayers, he needs them.
