Profile Information

About me:
I'm a 37 year old mom of 4! I work as a truant officer for a middle school, and love trying to keep kids in school to get an education. Married to a wonderful man who took on responsibilities of my older two children and has become dad to them.
I am here to support or represent my:
Child/Stepchild
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I:
Was concerned or afraid
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
To really listen to what he is saying and just be his cheer squad back home. They grow up so fast and all you can do is just be there.
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

Hi Darci, haven't talked to you in a while. Hope you're doing OK since your Dad passed away. Hard times, I know. Greg and Jill drove 850 miles to come home for Thanksgiving. They were only here for 2½ days and we didn't see much of them, so many people wanted to visit with them, invite them to lunch and brunch and dinner etc. But we did have them all day on Turkey Day. Our daughter and family came too so we had a nice houseful.

Greg's off on carrier training right now, on the USS Stennis for a week. Jill says she thinks he went to Hawaii. He gets home tomorrow (Sunday) and then Friday they fly off to Wisconsin to spend Xmas with her family.

Oh, and he made PO 2 ! He was really surprised as he hadn't studues for the test. He thought he's take it for real in 6 months and just took it to see what it was like, and he passed!

Have a merry Xmas and I'll probably talk to you next year!

Darci I am so very sorry to hear about your dad but just remember this, when someone we love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure. Darci don't ever lose that treasure that you had with your father. I know you said that Marke came home and I hope that he got to spend lots of time with his grandfather and I know how proud your father must be of Marke and now he has an angel watching over him at all times to keep him safe. Darci my heart and prayers go out to you and your family and if there is anything I can do for you, please let me know I am not far away.

Oh Darci, I'm so sorry for the loss of your dad. When you have a parent with a long-term terminal illness you prepare yourself for their death, at least you think you do, but you're never really prepared when it actually happens. It's expected, but still a shock. I'm glad Marke got to be home if only for a little while. It seems worse when things happen around holiday time and I don't blame you for wanting to just curl up in a ball somewhere and wish the world would go away. Been there and done that. It hurts.

Hey Darci, how are things going? You must be run off your feet with everything going on at home, and now the holidays coming up. Greg and Jill will be home for Thanksgiving. They have to drive almost 2,000 miles round trip for just a 3-day stay but Greg hasn't seen his dad in almost a year, since before Nick was diagnosed and he feels he needs to be here. He finally got his orders for squadron 12 and will be off in 2 weeks for a week's carrier training. So it looks as though he'll end up on a carrier when he finally gets deployed. I hope Marke is doing well, I'm sure he is. If I don't get around to writing again for a while, I hope you have a good Thanksgiving, well, as good as you can. We'll have a house full as Greg's sister and her family will be here too. It'll be giant turkey time.

Oh Darci my heart goes out to you and your family. In times like this there is nothing I can say but just know that if there is anything that you need, please let me know and I will help out in any way that I can. I will keep you, your dad and family in my prayers. You take care of yourself and touch back when you can.

Hey Darci, it has been awhile since I have talked to you but I did want you to know that there is another New York site, UPSTATE NY/NY STATE MOMS. On this site we are talking about getting together, just wanted to let you know so if you wanted to come along.
