Navy IA's

Good evening Ladies. You all were such a great comfort to me last year when my son joined the Navy and i have been doing well since. But I now need some more comfort. (lol) My son Coleton called today to tell me he volunteered for an IA and was selected. He will be going to Iraq sometime before the end of the year. He really wants to do this but me as his mom is having a really hard time. I have always been a worrier but now I am almost beside myself. I am very supportive of my sons decisions an… Continue

THE WARRIOR

This morning my thoughts traveled along
To a place in my life where days have long since gone

Beholding an image of what I used to be
As visions were stirred and God spoke to me

He showed me a Warrior a soldier in place
Positioned by Heaven, yet I saw not the face

I watched as the Warrior fought enemies
That came from the darkness with destruction for me

I saw as the Warrior would dry away tears
As all of Heaven's Angels hovered so near

I saw many wounds on the Warriors face
Ye… Continue

The kindness of Strangers

Hi Ladies, I know you all were as excited as I was for that Thanksgiving phone call. Coleton is in his 7th week of BC and this is only the 2nd phone call we have gotten so we were just so happy to hear his voice. I just wanted to share his Thanksgiving experience. My heart is so grateful to all who made his day wonderful!! He and his cousin got on a bus together not knowing their destination. They ended up at the VFW, they had set up computers, X-boxes, Lounge Chairs for relaxation and plenty of… Continue

New Proud Navy Mom

I seen this site advertised on t.v and thought i would look at it not thinking i would become a member. But after reading all these blogs by other Navy moms i just had to become part of it. Well my story is not unlike all the rest here. My son Coleton graduated from highschool this year (2008) He wasnt sure what direction he wanted to go, he had alway dreamed of being a Marine but as a mom I really didnt want him to be. In his senior year he decided to be an electrical lineman and was headed in… Continue

HI, Haven't got the guys connected yet, may go up there and take them out to eat or something. Daniel invited me to go up and go to church with him.

I have met a Mom from Minnesota, her son just got to Bangor and is having a hard time, I would like you to meet her. I think we could all be an encouragement, they are believers as well. Her name is Tere/Matt's mom you can find her on my page. I hope the guys can be friends. Me

I did Thanks, was great to hear from you, me

Did you know that they have 5 services on Sunday alone? one of the pastors told Daniel to come sunday eve. I think it is the 6:00 service, he said most of the young people go then. I will have to double check on the time. I think our sons need all the help and encouragement they can get from other Christians their age and it sounds like this church may be a answer. I'm pretty excited about our sons meeting. Daniel has to go back to the waterfront this coming Friday, but is pretty free until then. Maybe Coleton can text him or call and they can meet or something. I know we can't pick our kids friends but Maybe just Maybe????

Oh My Word that is the church that Daniel tried and liked it!!!!! Daniel doesn't have anyone to go with, can I give you his cell phone number, will Coleton text him? Maybe they can go together. This is Daniels last weekend off for 2-3 weeks, let me know, ok? It's 541 514 8241

Hi, Yep that's Daniel and that is his job, though it does have some good things about it, Ok, maybe just one. It was rough to start and I wish there had been a navy Mom to encourage us both, but Oh Well.
Does Coleton go to church? Daniel found one he likes 5 miles away if Coleton would like to go with him? Let me know. I know what you mean about going overseas, I know they are suppose to have to at some point but that would be hard to have them so far away.

Hi, How is Coleton, Daniel had to move out of his room, Did Coleton, guess they are turning the bldg into a gilrs dorm. Are you still going to Washington next month? When's his birthday?

See you joined our Bangor Moms group. They seem to be a lot of nice people. I tend to visit more one on one and talk less group talk but it's a good place to connect with others and find out whats going on.
