Kellychoate1, Hi there,
My SR is leaving in 43 days and he is very close with his 4 year old niece. They are more like brother and sister. My plan is to take my granddaughter with me to MEPS and watch him be sworn in AGAIN before leaving for GL. We are also going to the airport and sit with him until his flight takes off. This way , my granddaughter can see he is just getting on a plane for his 'New Job" and we will see him so when he is done with school. Some parents may think I am crazy to see him off, I think it's crazy not to if you are able. I will be doing the same thing when he leaves GL for his A School. I will be handing him back his cell and Ipad as well as clothes that he can take with him. I can not give these things to him at GL .And he wants me to see him off yet again. I hope this helps some.

Our son is leaving for Great Lakes on June 24th, he just turned 19 last week. We also have a 9 year old. Our 9 year old is taking this really hard. He is close to his brother (of course they fight like cats and dogs) but he breaks out in tears at the thought of his brother leaving next week (which of course makes me want to cry)
Suggestions?? Breaking my heart!

Wow, been a whirlwind lately, had sons high school graduation, open house and have decided I dont like the thought of him leaving... :) This last couple weeks have been tough, but this week I feel a little better, I just have to remind myself that when I was young, I moved out of state, (granted its different than joinging the military) but still, I had to go out on my own, and that is exactly what my son is doing, and i could not be happier!!

Hang in there LLLamaMama3. I hope you guys will still have some special time to spend together before he has to leave. I have to say I'm grateful that my future SR can't get that kind of call since he has to finish HS first. However, he will be leaving 2 weeks after he graduates HS and that is going to be CRAZY dealing with all the emotions of graduation and saying goodbye to my son. Oh man...just thinking about it is tough!
Keep thinking about the FINE YOUNG MAN you raised and what a GREAT sailor he will be representing our country.
