     Today when I woke up, I was surprised by everyone gathered around the table in our main room. Oh wait, today is my birthday. Alex was even there, which shocked me because I don't remember telling him when my birthday was. Everyone else must've told him at some point.
     This was my first time celebrating without James since he was born... I guess they could tell I was feeling out of it because they handed me another letter... Great, I haven't received any good letters yet, this can't be good... I read through it. It was from Washington. He had gathered men from around the country and wanted me to lead them. I needed to get going! This was going to be great! How could I keep this updated though...
     I decided to leave this with Alex, he can do whatever. I gotta go, gotta get the job done! Til I write again!
