Great Becky, I can for sure do this

I would love to send something, except he got shipped to Ballston Spa a week ago. Go figure. At least when he reports to Newport Rhode Island mid Feb. it's only a 4 hour drive. Thanks so much for offering though.

Postage News - first I was wrong (Yippee) and the boxes should ship for 11.95 each. Second I am working with Qwest Pioneers and hopefully they going to pay to ship all of the boxes to Afghanistan. A BIG thank you and lots of {{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}...

Profile Information

About me:
I am a school secretary and spend a lot of my spare time volunteering with our middle and high school church youth groups, fundraising for mission trips. I got to go on my first mission trip to Mexico in June 2009 and it was an amazing and uplifting adventure with 10 high schoolers and young adults. God is so good and we all learned so much. My husband and I have two sons, Dave 29 and Mike 19. Mike is in NUKE school. He is currently at Prototype in Ballston Spa, NY. He was just picked up for the STA-21 program and so will be going to Rhode Island in the next few months.
I am here to support or represent my:
Son/Daughter
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I:
Needed to learn more about it
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
To stand back and let him follow his heart, listen to him and offer support and encouragement. Also I am currently learning that in the Navy you never really know until it happens. Lots of maybes out there and I need confidence in my son to know that he will communicate when he can and as often as he can, even though it is rarely as much as I would like.
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

I know we have cards and letters coming but more is always better. Please pop out to the event page and RSVP so we have an idea… Continue

Hi
I have a good college friend looking for a group to join. She is a Marine mom. How close is your packing party to a town of Highlands Ranch, CO?
I think she is looking for some military moms who know how to pack love the way we do here!
thanks

Hi. You may want to change your username so that it does not include your last name, especially if it is the same as your sailor's, but even if it is not, to help keep everyone safer. Since you have posted your sailor's first name, if your last name is the same as his, you have actually posted your sailor's full name--something we have been asked not to do to comply with OPSEC. Blessings to you and yours.
