Bobby called
Posted on September 9, 2008 at 2:17am 1 Comment 0 Likes
Bobby called right after I left that blog and he sounded pretty good after being so sick. He told me what he was taking and I could tell it sounded like they were taking pretty good care of him. He has never been very sickly and it was probably a big shock to his system to get all those shots, be sleep deprived, change of climate, teeth pulled.... Ya I would be sick too. That's why b/c is for the young. LOL Well I am off to bed and glad he is on the up side. Keep those letters coming to your… Continue
Hope Bob is feeling better

I still haven't got to talk to Bob and I hope that he is feeling better. Usually if he can just get some rest he bounces back fairly quickly. Hope that is the case now. I know I will feel better if I can talk to him. I know, we moms' can worry so!!! I have been enjoying re-reading his letters. Oh well,,, guess I will go back to waiting by the phone. LOL

My son, Bobby, signed up for Aviation Mechanics and he was born and raised in Mesa, Arizona. My husband and I have 5 kids and have been married 27 years as of the 30th of August. We are very proud of our son. He loves sports especially baseball. He is a social bug and makes friends wherever he goes. It will be interesting to see how his strengths will help him in the Navy.

G-Man's Mom said… - Great to meet you! Did you end up taking Bob Johnson? Gary said he was going to six flags with some other guys. Thought maybe he ended up with you. That would be cool. Lets keep in touch. I have photos to send you so e-mail me your personal e-mail. Until later...

- Gina. Congratulations to your Sailor Bobby and your family. I hope that you had a wonderful time with him. Wasn't it GRAND!!! I am thinking about you all now as you are in GL with your son. I wanted this message to be there when you get home. Where does Bobby go now? I'm sure that he'll do just fine. Brook is doing good in Pensacola. Lots to learn and many new experiences. If you were like me you had a few tears run down your face during their ceremony, and you many have a few more after you say see ya later after your weekend was over. I refuse to say good-bye to Brook. It's just another chapter in their life, one that is going to have many rewards and bring many happy tears and smiles for you. We are now officially in the
Navy family!!
God Bless your SAILOR Bobby and your whole family.

Becky M. said… - Hey Gena, Did you hear from Bobby yet about Battlestations? I just got my phone call from Nathan that he passed!!! One happy Mom here. One happy sailor there. Great Lakes here we all come!!

- Gena. You just wouldn't believe how wonderful it is to see your son or daughter stand there in front of you a more mature and confident SAILOR!!! graduating with their division. I was in tears. Yes, you will be there soon and feel very similar to the way I felt. I was able to stay through Saturday night, and it was great spending time with her. She looks wonderful and was able to send her pictures home with me. Of course I'm the kind of mother who takes them with me, showing them to everyone!!! God, am I awful. BUT so proud. Gena, thank you for all the support through BC. I hope that we can still correspond as our SAILORS head off to A school. Brook is supposed to leave Wednesday for Pensacola. I hope that she is not on hold for too long as sometimes happens. BUT whatever happens she is on her way. Please give our congratulations to Bob when you see him and God bless him and your family. Hope to talk again soon.

- Gena. Hi, haven't talked for a while, but I thought that I'd let you know that Brook's Division finished Battlestations today. They swapped their ball caps for the NAVY caps and are now NAVY.
I got the long awaited phone call and just about cried. She sounded great, confident and just a little relieved. Can't wait to see her on Friday. We're leaving Thursday am for Great Lakes. Glad to hear that Bob is doing fine. Keep in touch and let me know how he's doing.
Talk to you soon.

- LOL - I think you're right about the letter writing and Gary..... Becky told Nathen the same thing to tell Gary and so did Janet tell her Bob. Poor kid....

- Hi Gena, How is Bobby doing? I sure hope he's all better now. Pretty soon you'll be in my shoes, being very anxious about seeing him graduate !!! I'm keeping them all in my prayers. Brook is doing great so far.
