There is a light at the end of the tunnel! Although we can't it yet, I think when we have the PIR date we'll be able to see it! It's only 8 weeks! That is a fraction of the time we carried them. (If I keep telling myself this, I might believe it! ...

- I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your daughter. I lost my father 5 years ago and although it wasn't confirmed, we think his cancer had come back. Know that you are in my thoughts today. And please know that your son's decision to serve is appreciated by myself and my husband. We know the sacrifices and are proud of all the young people who decide to serve their country.(Wow! Just reread this, sounds like we KNOW everything!:) Normally I'd retype, but I developing a headache.) Hang in there Butterfly Mom and let me know if I can answer any questions for you. Cindi

- Just read your comment on the November Boot Camp Families page. Oh, I feel for you! When did your son leave? My son left on the 18th. This site is the only thing keeping me sane! Hang in there!

- Oh Butterfly Mom
We will be here to help you as much as possible. Here, I thought it was hard losing his cat on my brother's birthday at the veterinarian's office---they left me alone to cry as I sent my kitty up to heaven with love for my brother. But a daughter would be so much harder I think than my brother.
Do know that we care. If you are interested, there is a prayer wall at http://www.navyformoms.com/group/prayerwall

- Hi
there is a Missouri family group page. Be sure and look for it. In the meantime, also join boot camp mom's--there's a wealth of information on it, and tons of support.
Hug your recruit for us. Let us know if you have any questions.
