It was such a wonderful weekend. I am just feeling so blessed. It was super hard to say bye. Hard to get back into the swing of things. Yes, let's continue to pray for our sons. All of these young men and women need our prayers. Love and hugs, Lin

Well, I fly out tomorrow morning early (I live in Montana). I know the Chicago airport is gonna be a culture shock for me (although I am originally from California). I am glad I am taking cabs because I just have no desire to drive out there. I am...

Congratulations to Joey too. I too heard about the young man and told Tanner I would be praying also. I did not want to worry any mothers here in case they had not heard from their son and was wondering. I feel for the young man and his family. It...

Yeah, I suppose the first hurdle is one way to put it. Sounds like from what Tanner said boot camp is one of the easiest things they do, can't imagine what hard must be. Congratulations to Buddy!

My son Tanner just called. He is officially a sailor! yay! can't wait to see them all in their uniforms Friday! I am looking forward to seeing my son but also getting out of town for a few days! I am so proud!

It's good to hear that they can't possibly call until this afternoon so we won't be too wound up if we don't hear right away. I decided that yes, it will be on my mind. But I am going to try and not get too anxious about it. If I don't hear from T...

Well, it's good to know that you are not wearing a dress. I had started to think about it but we could be stuck there a while so a dress and pantyhose might not be so comfy. Maybe I will do pants and a nice shirt. Well, hope to hear what you are a...

Bfogal, sorry to hear about your son, it won't be long and you can see him and Barb, I understand. My son Tanner just graduated from high school in August and had his first girlfriend. I too felt jealous about not getting alone time with him, ha h...

I got my first call from Tanner today. I was so excited! He sounds good. We can all be praying for them tomorrow and the battle stations. Then wait for the "I am a sailor" call Tuesday~! Lin

Thanks so much Barb for finding that out, what a relief we won't have to wonder around and be lost but that the cab can just drop us off at the gate and then we can be close to where we need to! God bless you. Getting excited! Lin
October 24
Okay, well that's good to know. Good point, could be freezing waiting too long. Anyhow, we will see how it goes!
October 23
So if I take a cab from the hotel about 7 miles away, what time should I get to base by? Is 5:30 to early? I just didn't know how long it would take to get on the base with a cab. Does one get dropped off and then walk onto the base when getting a...

I can't imagine not even being able to scratch one's nose! yikes! Guess we don't have a clue how hard it is unless like Bfogal you were in boot camp yourself! It's getting closer and we can continue to pray, take care! Lin

I got a letter from my son. He said they did quite a bit and I was thrilled to get a letter from him. He said he did well for the gun stuff and talked about fire fighting and graduation performances. He said it made him sad to see the happy people...
October 22
Hey Deb, I too have not gotten to talk to my son. His dad and I are divorced so he got a hold of his dad but not me yet as he did not have the number on him. I also get letters. Glad to see you here. I did not get a letter last week so I figure th...
October 21
Wow, it's good to know what's going on. I hope to get a letter from my son Tanner this week. Thanks for the update. I will keep in mind when I get my cab from the hotel Friday morning to get there early. I may not even get to see my son until late...

Hi Linnie, 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 for 2 years and is an IT3 & my son Tim (19) has been in since Feb 2008 stationed on the USS Nimitz.. What will your son be 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 recruit. Pat

Welcome to Navy for Moms. My sailor is currently waiting for final orders to go to Hawaii. He is a sonar tech aboard a submarine. He's been in for a year now and I'm excited that he gets to go to Hawaii! You'll find a wealth of information here on this site. Along with Friendship, Support, Determination, Inspiration and good conversation! Have a Wonderful 4th of July and lets not forget why we celebrate it and how we preserve it! GO NAVY
