Hi,

My name is Pam. I have two sons that are in the Navy. Joshua is in the picture with me. This picture was taken when we went to see Joshua's Boot Camp Graduation. This picture was taken about two years ago. Josh is currently with Fire Control on the USS.PENN. out of Bangor, Washington. Josh is 20 years old.

My other son is Chris. He is a Nuke. He has been in the Navy since High School Graduation. He has been in going on twevle years now. October 10, he is getting married in Saratoga Springs. He is 28 years old.

Barbara,
LOL, that is hilarious....I would be the same way. The oldest wouldn`t let us at the airport when he came home. Had to wait to get home. I guess I better check on that. Have two others at boot camp wanting to go hang out with us. Unfortunately, I may be unable to make. But I have another mom that is the greatest that`s willing to step up and take the girls for anything.... Fingers crossed that I still get to go.

Marianne,
I do have plenty of pics before all three went in. I will pm you with my email address. And send them from there. I`m just super cautious. Don`t even have pic on facebook or myspace. All cartoon characters... but would love to show them off....

Got this school year started with the remaining 5 in high school. My goodness, they let too many teachers make up their own school supply list. Plus everything we have to buy all year long. having two seniors this year with grad photos and grad invites, not cheap... But I still can`t complain, I love them all...

N.B. You better check to make sure they are allowed to go to a spa in uniform, they have some pretty strict rules. I tried to put my arm around my son in downtown Chicago and he jumped and said, "Can't do that." He could hold out his bent arm like he was escorting my and that was it. The best thing was that they have to keep "covered" i.e. keep their hats on, when they are outside and take it off inside but in the car they have to take it off unless the windows are down, then they have to put it on. I kept rolling the windows up and down so he was constantly putting his hat on and taking it off! I know, I'm such a meany!!

N.B.mom, We want pics of the newly "spa'd" sailors!!! God bless you with all those teenagers!!!! I thought 2 at a time was bad, but 5 in high school at once!!! Holy Cow!!! You are a brave and very blessed lady!!!

Yes 8... I love babies. I want to have one more, but hubby says no. Our youngest is about to turn 15. We have 5 in high school this year. Two seniors, two sophmores, and one freshman.

My 20 and two 18 `s that are in were fly by the seat of their pants type. But once in, they were ready for the challenge. My others are noses to books. They already have the college they plan to go to. I`ll be just as proud of them.
We are taking our girls after PIR to get total spa done, so it will be cute to see them in uniform and getting pampered...

Barbara, Yes Donna D in the Washington group went on my son's ship. She gave my son a hug for me! Actually, there was a picture of him and 2 other sailors pulling in the mooring line when they came into port. It was posted on the Navy.mil site.
