Navy For Moms

They are ALL going to pass BattleStations. They've worked so hard and they've come so far in the last 2 months. NOTHING is going to go wrong now.

THEY are going to be fine and SO ARE WE! No one is going to have to hijack a plane or make a U-turn on the interstate.

We are going to get together Wednesday night and talk until our throats are raw, hug until our arms hurt and smile til we can't smile anymore.

Then we're going to get up Thursday morning before the sun is up, cry while showering, steady our hands putting on our makeup and cry again while getting dressed. We are going to walk in to that assembly hall with our heads high and our hearts higher!!

We are going to control ourselves and not scream out their names when we see our recruits. We are going to cry when they all bow their heads in unison for prayer. We are going to be antsy during speeches because we just want to get to our kids but we are going to maintain our composure.

The minute we hear "Liberty call," it's every mom for herself!! Pity the fool that gets between us and our children...

I am tearing up thinking about it!!

It's a GREAT DAY!
