Heard from my sailor today, so glad he's on US soil.  I'm so proud of him and all who are on the CV.   I wish I was there but will see him soon.  I'm so anxious to hug him and see the difference in him.  I'm so glad I found this site, since I know there are other Navy Moms out there that feel the way I do.  This is his first deployment, so I know I'll go through this again.

Everyone enjoy the homecoming.  I won't be there but my heart will be with each mom with her teary eyes hugging her sailor...keep mine flowing too.  You all take care and to all our sailors.

heard from my sailor. He sounded so good. He lost his phone so he got a prepaid one and is now blowing up mine and his brothers and sisters phones.  Got to love it.

jittersmom, let those mama tears flow!  This is why we need each other -- because no one else really understands the incredible jumble of incredibly intense emotions when you talk to your child (he'll always be your child) after he's been so far away for so long and you have worried so much.  So those tears are filled with everything a mother is ♥    And it's a hell of an accomplishment to keep it together while on the phone - good job, mom!
