I understand completely about crying. I did the same thing to my son. I tried really hard not to cry but it was easier to go with the flow. Yes, I heard the same I'll be okay mom I can do this on my own.. I guess we will be getting the I'm a sailor call this week. I always forward my phone calls to my cell so I won;t miss his calls again. They are forwarned to take over when he calls. From what I read on FB they will be Wed thru Fri in the afternoon. But who knows.
Jean tell me how much I owe you for the scarfs. Thank you so much for making them.

This maybe a duplicate but may I please add 1 scarf to my original order? I would appreciate it tremendously! I won't arrive at O'Hare until 4:35 so I'm not sure exactly what time I will make it to Sarge's. I'll message you prior to my arrival and we will figure it all out! Thank you again!

The scarfs are done. But I have one problem. I got a phone call from my son last night reading a script that he would not be at PIR this Friday as he did not pass his PFA. I have been up all night and 4 boxes of tissues later. I just hope I have everyones order and right div. It helped my mine to do them today. And I have came to the point. That I will be at PIR this Friday. Because he still has a chance to pass his PFA and BS before PIR. I know my son very will and I know he can do it and I will be there to support him. So please do not get upset with me if I missed you. My last note is what I was going on. So if there is more to add or some one missed please post a note to me. I will try to check into this site often. But now I have to go to a different group call Fit for SR that did not pass there PFA. I have love you all and I feel that you all are a special part of my life. I will not forget any of you. I have a new group of family the Navy family. Hope to keep in touch with some of you. And I will be saying a prayer for our SR tonight for BS. Can you all say a special prayer for my SR on Monday for his first test in PFA and BS. love you all

Hi Jean
We will all pray for your sr too!
Don't worry about the scarfs - you just take care of yourself and your sailor.
We all hope to see you 2/3 and everything works out!
