OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Back in Oct. my daughter went to Camp Lejeune to help her older sister with the new baby. Sooo one evening she took my older grandson Jaxson home for dinner and she saw a casserole on the counter and she said ohhh we will have that for dinner and Jaxson said I know I was suppose to tell you something about that Auntie and I think its the cheese I just can't remember ....well Melissa thought that this was the casserole her friend had just left for them. Sooo the next day when she and Jax's went to the hospital to see Liz and the new baby Melissa told Liz that they ate the the casserole and that it was really tasty. Liz said Jaxson I told you to tell Auntie to toss it because it was over a week old that's why I left it out !!!! All Melissa said was at least we didn't get sick .

Okay Carol lets see.. my oldest daughter's family went to Disney World for Christmas ( which happens to be Jaxson's 6th birthday ) and during the Santa parade Santa is yelling Happy Birthday to Jason and Jax's looks at his mommy and said "my name is Jaxson silly Santa " Santa said the wrong name what are the odds... Kids are so cute

Carol,
It's nice to hear that you are feeling the same way I am or maybe you are ... I miss my son soooo much, and to know he is in a different country away from his family here for Christmas well I have to say I just pray for all .
I have done the baking remembering how he was when I would bake and how in July I will have my Christmas with my son. To all the mom's that have their Sailor's with them I am so happy for you .
I am so glad that I have all of you it is truly a big help for me.

OMG !!! My family will do the same I thought everyone gave a military discount... My son got upset at this man because he said wait mom let me show them my card so you can get my discount and the man said NO she isn't in the military and my son said really well she gave birth to two Navy Sailors so I feel she does deserve the discount ! I was speechless after that.

Niki- That's adorable !!!!
I finished most of my baking yesterday now today will be delivering all of it.... should be fun for Melissa and me. She's missing her brother so I'm crossing my fingers that he gets to call home for Christmas.
