I told my son to be careful....

[Donna]

While on leave, my son and his wife went to the beach. He called to tell me they were going snorkeling.....

I actually replied with "Be careful out there in the water" - His reply....Mom, the Navy has taught me a little about the ocean.

too funny - thanks for sharing!
Even the fact that your son went with his wife let's us know that he is old enough to know how to "be careful"!!
I guess we NEVER stop being Mommys!!

That is funny!
I did almost the same thing: When my son got back from Iraq, he had a lot of money in the bank. Of course, one of his primary purchases was a new car (BRAND NEW 2009) He had never before owned a car and actually just got his drivers license less than a month before he deployed. So, being "mom", I said "Please be careful!" He said "Mom, I was the designated driver in Iraq!"

LOL I am still hoping they teach my kid how to look both ways before crossing a street!

lol! I love these little blogs. Makes me realize that I am, afterall, a normal mom. So next time I tell my daughter to "be careful," and she says "Mom, I'm just doing my job" as she deploys out to get the boogyman on her big bad destroyer, I'll be sure to reply "Yes, and so am I."

Glad to know that I am not the only one that still thinks he is "still my little baby" and not an adult. I tell my son, "moms always worry".
