Hi,

 My husband is in boot camp right now and I was just wondering how often they get to call home. I haven't heard from him much since he left ( he says the only free time they get is when they sleep), and I miss hearing his voice. Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks

Hello all!

I'm new to all of this. My fiancé is currently in boot camp and will be graduating Nov. 27! I'm having a hard time and have a few questions. He is going in as a PACT airman and will be going to Pensacola for three weeks after he is finished with boot camp. I was told since he will be on a carrier his options of where he can be stationed at are Virginia, Washington, San Diego, and Japan. Since we aren't married yet…

Our second son is firmly ensconced in basic training. Surprisingly, it is not quite as hard this second time around. I am still somewhat nervous but not nearly as nervous as I was a year ago. Our first child has had to go through quite a bit in his Navy experience and, after a year and three months, is waiting to see if they will force a medical separation. When he enlisted, he had planned on making this his career. He doesn't want to leave the Navy, but the choice is no longer his to make.…

Got a letter from my son yesterday . It felt great to here from him.  He sounds gd its tough but he can do it. He has met some good guys.  This makes a mom feel good!

 Hi I'm Kia

 Was wondering if anyone is going to this graduation and if they have a spare bed? (Hotel name) Please private message me. I know I'm asking for a lot if anyone can help it will be much appreciated. 

My baby boy has all grown up.  He turns 19 today and I'm missing him greatly.  Feeling old and sad, but proud and happy for him at the same time.  I'm hoping that he is having a nice day and I can't wait to see him in less than a month now. :)  Happy, happy day!

Hello Everyone My name is Scarlett Lillyana Gomez I had to leave this world on 04/12/13, but my mommy and daddy loved me very much. I was only here for such a short time but it felt like forever, but now I'm playing in the clouds with all the other little boys and girls! I love my parents very much and I know they will never forget me! So please never forget your own children and the ones that passed either because they will always have a very special place in your heart and mind! <3 on…

I have backed off a little because I don't want my son to cut himself off from me completely. They are both well aware of my suspicions but neither of them (choose) to give the family any real proof. I can't believe my son can't just WAKE UP. Thanks for the advice and I'm hopping that if we give her enough rope she will hang herself, I just want her to do it before she gets pregnant for real. She and I both know. She wont come clean but I'm not shuting up about this. I hope everyone around…

I never really understood the word bittersweet until this morning.  His sister Sydney, my gf Christina and myself took him to supper last night for the last time before BC.  Seth choose to live with his dad after the divorce and I backed him in his decision so I haven't been around him 24/7 since he was 13.  We are about 30 mins apart so seen each other often but is that ever really enough? no, it's not and I live with guilt everyday that I wasn't there for him like a mom should have…

My son left Oct 1st for GL. Its been a long, tearful week. I have been a basket case. Now today, I am actually smiling and so happy, relieved and feeling soooo much better! I got the form letter, with his handwriting filling in the blanks! I could have kissed it! Now I know his address, his ship and his graduation date!

Who would have thought a form letter could make me so happy?! LOL

His graduation date is Nov. 27th! The day after his sisters birthday and the day before…

Thank you to those who have befriended me and help my get through these days! one of my favorite moments was when I found out that Naval Construction workers are called Sea Bees, Well its then that we came up with the name Sea bee bunny for Jennifer and I found this picture and made my heart melt the nickname in its self was so adorable and so is this picture haha! Again love you a lot…

I think my son's wife lied about being pregnant to get married. They are living in San Diego and he just won't believe me. There were no ultrasound pictures with her name on them, she claimes to have miscaried the 4 mounth twins one Tuesday morning at 1 AM but worked for the following 3 days in her 12 hour shift and she doesn't know the doctor's name because it is " really hard to spell". Does anyone have any idea what is going on and how can I get this pathological liar out of our lives.…

2nd son PIRs on the 18th of October! woo hoo!

Oldest (corpsman) married his sweet heart corpsman (she's beautiful!) - so this makes 3 sailors!

God has been SO good to me!

"So Far Away"

Its been One Week Since I Hugged My Son and watched him walk to his New Adventure One Week Since I have heard his Voice ... I took this Photo week before he left well because My Sons are my Favorite to Photograph and I knew I would want to remember him as he was in his day to day routine when he was at Home, Yes he was Happily playing video games in his room ... Now his Room Door is Closed I dont open it because the Clean, Empty Room…

My heart is with you Deontes MOM, the day I took him to meet his recruiter was really the worst for me. We were leaving home, his room and his home town for the last time, it was almost more than I could bear, I felt like it kept me from enjoying my last hours with him because I was so sad.  Yes, after I dropped him off, even though I knew I would see him the next day at MEPS, I felt like a balloon someone had let the air out of.  Totally lifeless, and weak as a kitten.  He never showed any…
