Profile Information

About me:
49 single mom. 2 Sons Shawn,31-Henry 23 - 2 Grandaughters Madisyn 7, Emily 1. I enjoy scrap booking.
I am here to support or represent my:
Henry McKinney - Port Norfolk VA- USS Mesa Verde
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy Career?
Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I:
Was concerned or afraid, Needed to learn more about it, Was proud
From my experience with the Navy, the most important thing I learned was:
I had to let go of my baby
Time for him to search the world for his opprotunities
Through this Navy experience, I now believe:
Our relationship has grown stronger, This was a maturing experience, The Navy has a lot to offer, This was the best decision he/she could have made

Hello Teri, well, I kinda know where your at, and it's been a very long time since I've been to battlecreek. I about 5 mi north of
toledo in the southeast corner of the state. So we are not too far from each other. Maybe we can meet someday when the MI moms get together! Hope the new year is being good to you and your sailor! Pam

Hi Teri! Well, I hope you had a wonderful time with your family when Henry was home. Was everyone really surprised? Yes, it is so hard when they leave. Seems my son did too. I think he was alittle down. It took him a bit for him to get back in the swing. I find that odd I guess, since he's the one that really wanted to join. I think it's just a huge adjustment. Still gets me teary-eyed at times. My husband was in the navy in norfolk as well, and he seems to think he's doing much better than he lets on. I hope your well, and I wish you, Henry and the family all good things this new year! Pam

Hi Teri; yes we've already had our "family" Christmas and Bryan has left for San Diego on sat, It was so very hard to say good-bye this time. I cried all the way home from Detroit. I was nice to have both home this year, we did have a wonderful time. I'm happy for Henry and you too, have a wonderful Christmas and happy new year! Pam

congrats! well to be honest, my second son took awhile for him to get past the entrance exam, but after a time he got in and then excelled in boot camp and a schools. So its been a learning process; he never really learned how to study in HS. He's doing so well it amazes me. Very happy for Henry, he will find his place! write again sometime! Pam

Hi Teri; loved the wedding pictures, you must be so very proud! How long ago did Henry get married? How long has he been in the navy? It sounded like he was just assigned a ship? yes, my son will be home on tues, just can hardly wait. both my sons home at one time! He will only be here for 10 days. Got the Christmas tree up and now I need to shop! An early Christmas for us. Bryan is a machinst mate/ fireman, MMFR and is logging hours for his journyman card toward nucular engineering, so hopefully when he gets out he can work at one of the nuke plants. He's already decided that he won't re-up. My second son, Billy will be starting pre-med in the spring! Thanks for writing and hope to hear all about your sailor! Pam
