<p>My son shipped off on July 12th as well! He is not my first-born, but my first into the Navy! I also was an emotional wreck for the first couple days. How are you doing this week?</p>

There is never a silly question ever question is valuable. I began to read on everything, and was told to stay busy, I mean I was a total mess you could not mention his name or I would start bawling. Couldnt enter his room for a long while. But I began to stay busy and think Positive thoughts and it really helped. My Son is the Baby so it was really hard for me to let go. But I knew it was something he had plannned for a while since Jr. Year. I will post some sites for you so you will know what to expect, and if you ever need help finding something please reach out. Best wishes to your Loved One and to your Family. and welcome again! Please keep phone close tonight, and hopefully he took cell phone and it stays charged.</strong></em></p> My son is flying in to the Gr…tag:navyformoms.ning.com,2018-07-12:1971797:Comment:104095052018-07-12T17:07:29.651ZHwillinghttps://navyformoms.ning.com/profile/Hwilling
<p>My son is flying in to the Great Lakes today. I have been a wreck since we put him on the shuttle yesterday morning. I am so proud of him and what he is going to do, I just miss him so much, more than I ever thought possible. Reading though this thread and the info on this site has really helped. Now its just a waiting game until we get the final phone call sometime this evening.</p>

My 1st born is in week 2, but he was living on his own for past 2 years. We looked up videos on YouTube for boot camp, and there is one done by Navyformoms, which is how I found this group. It will give you insight in what it looks like there and what they will be doing. There are some other good videos, too. We looked at the ones that are not former recruits, but ones that captured RDCs and more professional. Praying for you!!
