[Heidi - Eric's Wife DIV 007]

Anyone else? Would love to talk with you! My husband is ship 07 div 007. how awesome would it be to meet a mom/wife/girlfriend/fiance to share this stressful, lonely, and exciting experience with?

[JB's Mom Cori]

Look at that ~ Wendy is on the ball!!! Great job!! We have such an amazing group of women here!!!

[Wendy (Bo's mom)]

hahaha!!! Good morning Cori:)

[JB's Mom Cori]

Good Morning, Wendy. PS....I just got a letter from Jeremy. Heading over to FB to post it. Hope everyone gets something today...even though yesterday was a holiday!

[Wendy (Bo's mom)]

Yay! Cori, I always look forward to reading your letters! I don't post mine because Bo's dad is a pretty bad guy. He's not on my friends list, but has a way of finding things out. Bo has nothing to do with him..lucky he has a wonderful dad in my hubby:)

[JB's Mom Cori]

Glad to hear he has a great support system in your husband. I love sharing his letters...of course, it was my "job" while he was gone so he didn't have to write everyone. He thought it was easier. But, it guarantees a letter every week! Not that he wouldn't send one anyhow, but I get all the information ~ which I am ever so grateful for!

[Wendy (Bo's mom)]

I got a letter from Bo today! Says he got moved to a different rack because the section leader was fired; so he is now Section Leader 4. Had their second PFA and it went really well..88 situps, 70 pushups and the 1.5 mile in 10 minutes:)

Second PI (personal inspection) and WTI (weapons turnover inspection) and he got no hits (which is good). Zone inspection was perfect..

Livefire, got a marksman ribbon. Got his root canal; all his bootcamp dentistry is over:)

I'm so happy. This was a 4 page letter, with all the details of my million questions; and answers to my survey questions! Okay, more tears..happy tears:)

Love to you all. You ladies are the topic of most of my conversations:)

Wendy ~ sounds like an incredible (informative) letter! Glad to hear he is Section Leader!! What a great responsibility!!! Must have something to do with good parenting! lol

His results were like Jeremy's. He also got a marksman ribbon! woo hooo Thinking we have some damn good kids!

Keep doing the happy dance and feel free to join me on cloud 9!!! I'll be here a while considering the upbeat letter I got today!! Yeah!!!

Had to laugh at your last line. I am constantly saying "on my Navy for Moms sight......"! Just one of those places I can go where I find total comfort. There is no bickering or competition here. It's a total connection because all of us are in the same boat and can find joy/sadness in the information of others. I can dance on the outside of cloud 9 knowing some of us got phone calls....even though it wasn't me! Just hearing how upbeat the boys are becoming compared to the desperation in the calls/letters at the beginning. I can safely say this is my comfort zone...thanks you all you ladies.

[Wendy (Bo's mom)]

Aw, me too Cori:) A very nice comfort zone..I'm liking the happy dance..think I'll keep doing it!!!
