"The Warmth of a Moms Love at Christmas Time"
I have the HONOR of anouncing...........Our Holiday GROUP
During the Holiday Season this year we have received a “special warm request” from a group of Seabees-YES, I said Seabees, in Afghanistan! The request came from the Battalion Chaplain of NMCB 74. The Chaplain says that they have Seabees in several locations around Afghanistan. He is hoping to do two things this Christmas-geez..Only 2, we can do MORE!
1) Have a smore roast by a campfire-singing Christmas carols and sharing Christmas stories of HOME.
2) He would like to have stockings to hand to his troops.
Moms, we want to send all the “warmth” and “Love” of Christmas to all 250 SEABEES
Now moms, are your hearts melting YET? Well, let’s get busy!
However, before you dash out the door, hear this!
We have had “some” VERY busy elf’s here!
Knit for the Navy Group has been busy knitting away at scarves
Heads at Ease has been busy sewing away at stockings.
A HUGE Thank You to "Lyn Love" who coordinated all our “crafty” Navy Moms!
We are looking for the "Warmth and L♥ve" that comes from “HOME” at Christmas time!
So think WARM, IT BRRRRRRRRRRR freezing in Afghanistan.
So think Stockings, we have to stuff all those stockings!
Think WARM, lets keep our Sailors warm and toasty!
I would also like to give a shout out to “UNO’s Grille” in Kissimmee Florida-UNO’s is accepting donations for Molly’s Adopt a Sailor and in return they are giving out a coupon for a FREE appetizer! Boy, where does it end! We have such an outpouring of support from all over! It’s NOT over yet!
Let’s hear it for our Central Illinois’ Moms who on their own is taking on another special group of 60 in Iraq this holiday season! The love never ENDS!!!!!
As Always, Please use our Molly’s Adopt a Sailor Labels on all items! Mailing Dates on November 27-December 5th, so let's start the HOLIDAY PARTY
I have one last think I would like to add!
I am a mom of a sailor aboard USS Rodney M. Davis, which was adopted last holiday season by Molly’s Adopt a Sailor. I could NEVER begin to explain how I felt knowing that my son’s ship was receiving all the love that Molly’s Moms have and MORE. The day the BAGS of mail arrived aboard the Davis my son just so happen to be there with our “contact” CMC Smith! Well let’s just say, Cannot repeat what came out of the CMC’s mouth! Shock and Awe, should explain it! My son called me a few hours later letting me know the mail was dropped and dropped big. My son received over 15 cards that Christmas and he read them repeatedly! He said “Mom it gets pretty lonely on this small” ship; So, I am “Paying it forward” Molly’s Moms Style!
PS-thanks Molly, it was about time you let me do this! L♥VE YOU SISTA!!!!
Please USE these LABELS so that CHAPPY knows they are from US...♥

Diane: You Central Florida NAVY MOMS really ROCK!!! I know how much "goodie bags" mail, letters, cards mean to our Troops!!! My son was a recipient of all the Navy Mom Love on the USS Crommelin when it was adopted by Molly!! He and his shipmates were absolutely thrilled that "someone out there" cares for them and is concerned about them other than family. Since some don't get mail, etc., for one reason or another, this program is an absolute God Send!! I have sent a couple of "goodie bag" boxes since to him and his guys and they just think that is just the bomb...they said they never know what to expect!!! I have the privilege of cooking and baking for my son and some Sailors from the USS Crommelin for Christmas Eve and Christmas Dinner !! I am so EXCITED...doing meal planning and copying recipes!! Thank you once again!

Molly: Well, things are going pretty good so far..will be getting more items tomorrow from the hospital and our local Fire Department posted the "Sailor's list" in their news letter along with the packing party information for this weekend. Got a call from The Secretary of States Office and Letters are in the mail. Hope to get them today! Tomorrow night is the Fundraiser so please keep us in prayer. Oh, Yeah, the school that helped with donations...is sending me 390 home made post cards from the 1st and 2nd graders tomorrow. So we have been busy little bees..lol!
