hi Kimberly. my son left for bc last August. so I am kind of new to this also. Navy for Moms will be your new best friend. especially in bootcamp when there are very few phone calls and lack of information. but believe me someone on here will always have a answer for you. you will know things your son doesnt even know yet
janie..feb. 4th is so close. you must be so proud of your daughter

he loves it and the pictures are awesome. I am going to be sorry I didnt go visit him.he even went to Germany for Octoberfest. He met his girlfriend in cali. she broke up with him because she doesnt want to go to virginia. nice girl huh? he is the one who has been away from home for the last 5 years. I think out of all the places he has been Afghanistan had to be the worst, it took him awhile to get his self together. Its great that you got to spend time with your son for the holidays. its so sad when they leave though
