Profile Information

About me:
Im a proud mother of four children and also a proud grandma of two. My husband of 24 years was a former marine. I also have a long history of family members who have also served in the Navy,Army and Marines. Just recently our son in law has joined the Air Force. Soon maybe we will have another son in the service. Don't know which service he wants to join though. Lol could make for an interesting conversation around the holiday dinner table.
My child's FIRST name only (No Last Names Please!):
Tex McBride
My son/daughter is:
Enlisted
I was the proudest of my child when:
our family went to see Tex graduate from boot camp. It moved me so much. I was so proud of him. Of course I thought he looked so handsome and carried himself so well.
When my son/daughter first spoke about joining the service I:
Was concerned or afraid, Was proud
As a new Navy mom, the most important thing I learned was:
to catch myself from being way over protective of him, which I have always been since he was baby. He is of course 19!! I have to learn to let go. When he went on his first float, I cried for a month straight. It was so hard on me. Im getting use to him living soo far away. He is stationed in california. Yuk. Still...we talk when we can and thank God for the internet.
My son/daughter is currently in the service or retired, and now I believe:
Our relationship has grown stronger, The Navy has a lot to offer

Dear Momma McBride-
Hello! Hope all is well with you and the family... so I guess I am still trying to figure out your profile...
Soon maybe we will have another son in the service. Don't know which service he wants to join though.
Is that Tex? He is now enlisted? Or is this another family member? Love to hear from you when you have a chance- Sincerely, CC

Dear Momma McBride:
Hello and Welcome to N4M’s!
My name is Catherine the Admin and I’m glad you’ve joined us. As you start exploring you will see a great amount of chatter (IE: knowledge, support, advice, etc.) on our site (in our blogs, forums, and videos.) Before you add your point of view (POV) or ask questions, I want to share some ground rules with you. Here they are:
1) Please show respect at all times for all who belong to this community. (I like to say- Keep it civil… and everybody love everybody!)
2) For security, please do not reveal the current location of your Sailor or Officer.
3) Remember that this community is public, so anything you post (about yourself, your child or someone else) can be seen by anyone.
4) This site is moderated, so inappropriate content will be removed, like anything vulgar, hateful, violent, racist or otherwise obnoxious or illegal.
5) We may remove anything deemed inappropriate or inaccurate.
6) Members who solicit, advertise products, spam or flood on this site will be asked to walk the plank. Seriously.
7) DON'T SHOUT! Writing in capital letters means you're screaming in the digital world. That's not nice. So to emphasize a word, place *asterisks* on either side.
8) Let’s be tidy. Before beginning a new topic in the Forums, try searching at the top right of your screen to see if the subject has been addressed already. AKA- Be BEST friends with the search button!
9) Please don’t send the site's administrator (that’s me!) questions about the Navy. That’s what the Forums and your local recruiter are for. This site's administrators are NOT members of the U.S. Navy. They're here to keep the topics organized but cannot provide any Navy-related answers, nor can they respond to personal questions. (And trust me, Navy Moms answer quicker and better than I ever could)
10) Feel free to contact me with suggestions or comments about this site’s functionality.

Okay, so those are the house rules. Time to connect with other Navy moms!
I look forward to reading more about you!
Sincerely, Catherine
