My son just started ATT school on Tues & he just had PIR on 1/13. I am grateful he did not have to be on hold but a week. I expect that after ATT & A school there will be a big hold before C school. Is there another website that the newer moms use? During BC our group was very talkative & I'm kinda of having withdrawl from all my N4M friends. Or do I just need to chat more often??? Thanks!!

BTW-I had no idea what cranking was or that they even had to do it. When my son finally gets to that stage I hope he has to cook. He did a ok job at cleaning up but never really learned how to cook. Always thought he would use a mocrowave & use paper good. lol!

ari's mom,
as to whether she enjoyed it or not depends on what day (and sometimes what hour) you ask her.  now that she's been turned down for renlistment (which she has beens saying she didn't want to do) she depressed she can't reinlist.  change, none where i'm concerned.  she has learned how to support herself (don't know how long that will last after june) but she doesn't treat me or act any better around me then she did before she went in.

my other daughter is also in GL at A school studying to be a FC.  they probably know each other.

Congrats on the ESWS!  Excellent achievement.

Sorry to hear about the seabag.  I hope he had it labeled and tagged.

It is quiet on here. I may not comment much (feel I know so little - son just finished A school) I just wanted to thank everyone for the advice and fellowship. You really helped me to not be discouraged as he was in school.  I know the Navy is the right choice for him. His confidence shows that!

I noticed your comment about your two daughters being in the navy.  You have one that is getting out after five years.  I have one that has been in almost a year and she is in A school in great lake studying to be an ET.  she should be finishing A school in another month.  Did your daughter that is getting out after five years enjoy her time.  Did you notice that she changed a lot?  Are you excited that she is finishing?

I know what you mean, Connie~Matt's Mom~.  My son's calls and letters from boot camp showed so much maturity that I was afraid I wouldn't know him at PIR.  Well, he has grown a lot.  But the X-box kid is still there, I'm relieved to say.  I'd miss him if he were completely gone.  I'm not quite ready to give him up yet. :-)

You are all way farther into your navy mom careers than I am. My son just PIRd two weeks ago and is waiting for classes to start in GL. I guess now he's just doing "whatever they tell me to, Mom" (said with an eyeroll that can be seen over the phone and an extreem effort at patience). I hope he's not on hold too long. He grew a lot during RTC, developing perserverence and a thirst for excellence that he didn't display much in high school. How do they keep that spirit up when they're waiting and cleaning?

that sounds good that they keep them updated. Thanks for the information.  I know what you mean about them doing anything the Navy wants them to.  when he was waiting for C school he had to to something with the paint.  I think they were rubbing it off with a chain or something.
