Profile Information

About me:
I am a 36 year old mom of 3 boys(19/16/12), stepmom to 2 more boys(11/7) & a girl(10)...in order by age: Michael Joseph, Jake, Jesse, Johnny, Melissa, & Mitchell...a true OURS, mine & yours family with the oldest being ours...yes we are reunited high school sweethearts...a Navy Wife to my Seabee who has been in for almost 17 years, our hometown is MIdland, TX, we lived in Gulfport, MS for 3 years & now reside in the Jacksonville, FL area. Now we are getting ready to send our oldest to boot camp on 2/4/2010...he is going to be an IT...
I am here to support or represent my:
Son/Daughter
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
Waiting to leave for Boot Camp
When I heard “Navy,” I:
Was proud and encouraged it
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
I am still learning...every day...even with his father who has been in the Navy for almost 17 years...it's ALWAYS a learning experience...but it brings you so much!
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

A LITTLE RANDOM INSIGHT TO THE CAPPADONNA/SMITH HOUSEHOLD:

We are a mixed Irish/Italian family who love food and love cooking, baking, grilling,etc even more...we love to travel & sight see and can find something to 'sight see' in our own area with little travel required...we are a very large combined family so ingenuity is required to be able to do anything with all 8 of us! All of us enjoy reading & we have a large eclectic collection of books...and music for that matter...we are avid Boston Red Sox & and Dallas Cowboys supporters...did I mention the Red Sox? In fact, it will be the sports updates Michael Joseph will miss most during boot camp, he already has a friend lined up to mail him reports!! Coffee & wine are another of MY passions...where coffee is enjoyed by several in this household, I am the only vino lover in this house...basically we are a home full of passion & chaos, but we are insane enough to deal!!

Hey Maggie,
thanks for the request. So we are neighbors I see. You will enjoy this site especially when he goes to boot camp. It was an emotiional life saver for me. Me and my husband felt like someone had died when he left. We totally supported him though and we are very proud of his decision. He was lucky and went in with three friends which I know made it better for him. At least he knew they were going through it too. After graduation he went to A school in MS and now he is logistic specialist in Norfolk on the USS Enterprise. We just got back from there last night. We went to see him for Memorial weekend. He had duty today so we decided to come home a day early. I miss him everyday but this experience has been soooo great for him. He has grown in so many ways. Kyle had absolutely no motivation before the Navy. It is still hard to let him go. They don't tell you that when you have them that one day you will have to let them go UGH!!!!!!! I also have a 19 year old, his name is Brian. He is totally different from Kyle but still has no motivation. I know he will never join the military and I just pray that he finds his way.

Yes, I am sure the site will help you a lot. I got on to it when my son was in his 3rd week of boot camp. The site was only a month old. Things have really changed a lot since then.lol

Welcome to the site. We have a group here for Jacksonville navy moms. Please join us. We try to meet for lunch every other month. I just saw that you have joined the group already>LOL If there are any questions I can help you with just ask. I understand that your husband is Navy but he must have gone through boot camp awhile ago. our son has been in for 18 months. He is an ET stationed on a ship in Norfolk.
