Justin's Involuntary Habit




Justin and I live pretty close to Hill Air Force Base, so therefore, we are right under their fly zone and we constantly hear the jets flying over. Anyone who knows Justin knows that he grew up on or around Air Force Bases due to his dad being in the Air Force and so he has an intense love of airplanes/jets. He actually went through the whole testing process a few years ago and got a pilot slot in the Marines. He was so excited that he was going to be living his dream of flying and serving in the US Military. Sadly, his lung collapsed twice within 7 months so he was disqualified from serving in any branch of the military. Still, Justin's love of planes is so deep within him that any time he is home and hears the slightest noise of a plane flying overhead, he automatically jumps up from wherever he is and runs to our second bedroom to look out the window (as seen in the pictures) or runs outside, depending on the weather. The blinds are always left up in the bedroom because he runs in so often. I think it's hilarious because he already knows what plane it is without seeing it! He's studied them and seen them all millions of times...yet he still has to see it each time! He tells me it's an involuntary habit that just happens without even thinking about it! Cute Justin!
