Thanks Ladies for the well wishes!
R is happy at PNAS but ready for change. Birthdays are a BIG celebration for our family and this will be the 1st of many he will celebrate without us and with his NEW Navy family.
Sherrill ~ I agree with your comment 100%. He is ready to actually do some work with what he has learned. Gets bored (his words) with all the schooling. Loves the "hands on" aspect much better.
I will be sure to sign N4M Aunties to his birthday card so he knows his extedned Navy family wishes him well too :~)

reds-sounds like you were talking to one tired puppy and once he got it off his chest he was much better. yeah you are soooo right.....your Sailor knows you love and miss him. will you put a little note in his package wishing him a Happy Birthday from all his Navy aunties....i tell my Sailor all the time how EVERYONE is rooting for him.

Donna - awesome cake....Happy Birhtday to your Mom!
Good morning ladies....Texas here!
Talked to R on Saturday since his birthday is coming up next week. I wanted to know what he wanted or needed....got hit with a ton of bricks...he said he wished for a plane ticket HOME!!! Did nothing but cry the rest of the conversation...he said it was too late to put in for chit :(
He stated that it would have been nice but no big deal...I told him it was to me! My heart was aching ALL weekend.
He did call me again last night with a few suggestions that sound feasible. Actually sending him a care package today of personal items and goodies. Will send him his birthday package next week and then Easter package the following week.
You think he will know that I miss him and love him after all that?!? Yeah, I know he does :-)

no not softly chirping at all since i had the volume up as loud as it will go...actually sounded something similiar to the movie "The Birds" the old Alfred Hitchcock movie. we keep "white noise" going all night long to help Sissy sleep...and Lawd Have Mercy we need her to sleep!!! she was rocking out last night to some old R&B hits....Platters, Marvin Gaye,Teddy Pendergrast.
Cindy...hehehe "borrow" away Honey...it works!!!
i am about to need to be peeled off the ceiling if our reservations are no good at the Lodge for graduation on 4-22!!!!

Cindy--your daughter may just be following some advice that i have given to some of my young friends....for the girls i have said "You will have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your Prince". for my son and other young men i tell them "You will have to kiss a lot of wicked stepsisters until you find your CInderella".
raising confident children is no small task Momma...you have good reason to be proud of yourself and your Yatlins!!!
Sailor son mentioned last night that there are renovations going on at the Navy Lodge and some reservations have been cancelled. saw a post on Pcola moms about problems at the Lodge.....oh i might be in big big trouble here!!!

oh dear oh dear if he runs into mold he will not be happy so in the meantime i will start collecting everything to take care of it the best he can. thanks for all the suggestions!!! talked to Sailor Son last night for quite a while....he was so chatty....so unlike him...my Sailor of a few words.
storms ripping through here and power was out briefly. kept hearing birds chirping all night long and it was soooooooo annoying!! the "white noise" machine we have for sissy had reset to default...birds chirping!!!!
Cindy-your daughter going to the Prom alone...sounds like one independent young lady so full of confidence!!!

Donna---Happy Birthday to your beautiful momma!! beautiful cake too!!!
