Profile Information

About me:
My husband and I are from Stockton, California. We have one son starting his senior year in College down in Orange County, and a daughter that is finishing her senior year in high school. Our son Chris is the middle child. He joined the Navy April 8th to become an IT. My husband is a Chiropractor and also the director of the California Chiropractor Association for eight counties in the central valley area. For my mid-life crisis (40) I decided to go back to school. I am currently working towards a nursing degree. Our family motto is LIVE LAUGH LOVE. It makes better days.


I am here to support or represent my:
Chris
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I:
Encouraged him/her
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
What area of the Navy was best suited for my son. I was afraid he was going to get board in the job he selected. I was excited to find out that if he wants to change jobs he can. I think he was pretty happy with that . I feel the classifier put him exactly where he belongs according to his test scores.
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
This was the best decision he/she could have made

Hi Teresa, Boy its been a while. My Chris is stationed in Flordia--he went out to sea for a few months and now is back on base; he'll leave again in October. Luckily he's only 6 hours away so we see him at least once a month. How's things with you and your family?

Hey Teresa, Happy Thanksgiving. Hope you had a good one. Mine was nice. I got a call from Jacob. He let me know he will be home for Christmas. He graduated from A school. And has some dental work to get done before they will let him leave. Then from here he goes to Norfolk. I can't wait to see him. How is Chris doing? Is he liking it in Washington? I think it would be a great area to be stationed. It sounds like he has a lot of friends there so he won't be lonely. Take care and write when you can. Barbara

I am so excited about Jacob getting to come home for Christmas. Plus the good news is he found out he will be close to home where he is going to be stationed. So unless his ship is out I hope to be able to see a good bit of him. I am only about four hours away from Norfolk. I was really praying he would get there. It was good that you got to celebrate Chris' birthday with him. I know that meant alot to both of you. I agree that our sons have chosen the right area to be in. They should be able to go far with their careers. I am so proud of Jacob and I know you are of Chris. They have such great opportunities available to them. I know they will take full advantage of it . Well, I will go for now. It was great to hear from you. Please keep in touch and let me know how things are going for Chris. Take care. Barbara

Hi Teresa, My son,Jacob,is in Pensacola too. He graduates from IT school in about two weeks but will be in holding until mid-Dec. But he will be home for Christmas if all goes well. He found out Norfolk is where he will be stationed. He will be assigned to the USS Kearsarge. He is excited about it. Hope to hear from you about how Chris is doing? Jacob has mentioned Corry Station when I have talked to him. I am not sure where he is exactly where he is. Hope to hear from you soon. Barbara

Hey Teresa, I see I had a few grammar errors. It could be because we were up until 4 AM just enjoying his company.

Hi, Ryan got home Friday night for 21 days. He is off to Hawaii on 9/26, I wouldn't mind being stationed their. It is so great having him hold and knowing he is sleeping in his bed. It will be very hard to say good-bye again because it is so far away. It misses his friends already and plans to make a trip to DC in the future. I hope they all stay in touch and remaing lifelong friends. Chris will be home before you know it. Keep in touch.

Hey you!!! How's school going? My students have already started. I'm excited. We start clinicals soon. I have junior level students. They are so cute! I met them in simLab. Boy will I educate them on our med/surg floor. It's pretty intensive. Lots of learning opportunities. If you get a clinical at a VA-Take it! It's great for learning. How is Chris?
