Hi Star and Techitunes, Have either if you had a phone call or a letter?
I'm hoping a call will be this Sunday. But I thought we'd have a letter by now.
Hope you all are hanging in there :) -

no, neither phone call or letter yet. so sad. but we did make our reservations. we are staying at the Navy Lodge. Flying in Thursday for the meet and greet with Sarge, and hopefully seeing Stephen. I'm thinking Sunday for the call too, but I'm keeping my phone close. It seems some CPOs allow calls earlier and letters to be mailed. I guess they are each a little different. Getting closer to grad date anyway, right?! LOL

We haven't made reservations yet. We are comming far from California. I hope they call or get to write soon. Even prisoners get to call by now LOL. But guess that's the military life now. I technically Understand why, but I humanly don't. ( sorry im venting) I'm sure if they have got their mail, he has a lot to read :)
Soon I hope and I look forward to meeting you at PIR. -

Hi Seesmom,
How are you doing? My son is Kris. We got the first letter from him yesterday. How about you?
We are hoping soon for a phone call. -

Okay ladies 40 days left!! I hope the SRs are all doing well and feel like they are succeeding in becoming members of the Navy. Like all of you, I think of my son so often and wonder what he's doing right now.
I'm still going through the clothes in his closet and giving some things to friends or donating. He didn't go through things that were too small, if he had room they just stayed there. LOL. He will want all different things for A school except maybe his favorite jeans and shoes. I guess I'll try to finish up and gear up organizing what he said he will want shipped to him.
