Several years ago we decided to cook some homemade filet mignons. They turned out delicious, but Corey couldn't quite figure out why they were called "flaming yawns". We still tease him about that one.

Can't stop grieving, but keep on believing!

It's almost two weeks since Corey left. Still can picture that plane taking off. The sadness is overwhelming me at times, but I have a great support group at Navy for Moms and from my friends and family here at home. Thank you all. We've got a letter and a couple phone calls. He's in Division 273. He graduates on August 7th. Anyone else have a sailor in that division, I'd love to hear from you. Maybe we'll meet at graduation. Write them often, they need our support. They miss us as much as we mi… Continue

My son just left for Boot Camp

My son Corey got his call from the recruiter the day after he turned 18 that his job as a construction builder was open and he would be leaving for Boot Camp in one week. My heart is broken because I will miss him so much, but I am so happy and proud of him, just sad for me. He just graduated from High School on May 31st. turned 18 on June 2nd, and now he's gone. He's my baby. I have a 24 year old daughter, Raelynn, and a 21 year old daughter, Lacy. Lacy moved to Bismarck, ND the week before. Em… Continue

Hi Mary, welcome to Navy for Mom's:)) You will find a lot of answers, support and encouragement here. My daughter, Ashley (20), has been in the Navy since July 2007 and is an IT3 & my son Tim (19) has been in since Feb 2008 stationed on the USS Nimitz.. What is your son/daughter doing with the Navy? If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'm glad you joined and look forward to hearing more about you & your Sailor. Pat

Hi Mary. I do not think that I will have too much anxiety when my daughter leaves because I plan on going out there to see her graduate, but once I come home and I know that she is not coming home, it will probably hit me. Right now she is in Korea until the end of July. She has been there since May 15th visiting her boyfriend who is in the Army. I think this is scaring me more than joining the Navy because of whats happening in North Korea. I will check every day on Navy for Moms if you would like to talk. I welcome the thoughts and messages because I have no one else to talk too regarding my daughter and the Navy. Thank you for contacting me.
