When I heard “Navy,” I:
Was concerned or afraid
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
You have to accept that you have done your job for 20 years. Now it is time for him to do his. But it won't stop me from worrying about him and loving him.

Wow really proud of the Man he has become through this process!
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

Hey Diane! Hope things are well with you and Rusty. John will be home for 2 weeks at Christmas. He is in SanDiego, working on the USS Pearl Harbor. He likes it. Loves CA!! Bought a truck and stays off ship at night.
Merry Christmas to you and your whole family.

Hello Diane. Hope you are doing well. How is Rusty and where is he now? Zac graduated from CM School (Construction Mechanic) on July 21st and surprised me for my birthday on the 22nd. Wasn't expeting him until Aug 8th. He left yesterday for Gulfport MS where he will be stationed with the 25th Construction Battalion. He won several awards while in Port Hueneme, CA. So atleast he is closer to hime now (but still about 12 hrs). I think of you often. Baby season is in full force at the moment so I am lucky to get a day to breathe. Love to you and Rusty. Love our Sailors!

Hi Diane, haven't heard from you in a while. Matt will be leaving SD the end of the month. He got stationed in VA, on the USS McFaul, I happy he will be closer to home. John also got stationed there. He will be out on deployment until Nov. He flys out to meet his ship on the 18 of this month. Hows Rusty doing. Hope he is flying though school and loving SD. I know Matt hates to leave. But he is looking to move on. Lots of excitment is ahead for our guys.

Hey Diane, Haven't written in a while. Matt just past his comp test and will graduate A school this Friday. He is now a petty officer. He has 6 months of power school and 6 months of prototype before he goes to the fleet, but he is well on his way. How is Rusty?

Morning Diane, How was you trip to San Diego? Matt got his orders last week. He will be going to Virgina the end of the summer. Stationed on the USS Mcfaul DDG As much as he loves SD I think he is ready to move on. Can't wait to hear about your trip.

Wishing you a great great trip to SD!!!!! John is home for his leave before going to SD too! He is glad he got that location. He'll be home until the 11th.
Tell us all about it when you get back.
Smiles.

Morning Diane. Just wanted to drop you a line and wish you a safe trip to SD. I wish I was going. John is coming home for the 4th. So I will have one son back in Jersey. If you see Matt give him a big kiss for me. LOL

Thanks for writing back. Oh, the garden center business has been very good despite the "economy" so I have been working non stop. When John's grandpa died a month ago, we got John home to be with all of us and I can't tell you how important that trip was for him. It will be a lifetime memory and a huge growing experience. I will have to post pictures here.
Just spoke to him last night and he classes up today for his last A school- about 15 days. So, after that, he may get to come home- not sure for how long because he got to come home twice already and don't know if that time cut into his leave time. We'll see. He has not mentioned where he may be heading so I don't think he knows yet. He did not have to wait too long for schools so he is lucky there.
We are so proud aren't we? He is talking about savings accounts, getting a credit card, credit and saving for a vehicle all on his own for when he gets to where ever he is going.
So glad you will see Rusty again! Who would have thought that every visit would so important, not knowing when that next visit will be. You certainly are doing it right too; spending quality time together and capturing it all in pictures! I love it. So, have a great time with him and do share with us.
I have my daughter's grad for HS coming up so we have lots going on at home too.
Getting 2 ready for college in Aug. will be interesting... no children home this fall- bitter/sweet.
Take care and keep in touch!
