Sharon....so what will he do now? I would love for you to check in and let us know how the civilian world is for him now he is out. Are jobs easy to get with Military experience? I still want to do a get together everyone,,,,,
How are you feeling with him out?
suzann... how did you all find out you were each a Navy Mom.
This grandmother was surprised by her 7 year old grandson one morning. He had made her coffee. She drank what was the worst cup of coffee in her life.
When she got to the bottom, there were three of those little green army men, and she asked him why they were there.
Her grandson replied, "On television, they say, 'The best part of waking up is soldiers in your cup!'"
Hey there lady! I have not heard what works for anyone.. maybe May is to busy with Mothers Day and Memorial Day.. so lets switch this to June!
ANY weekends you all want to suggest...?????? Albuq would be middle ground for those coming from up North and South. Any ideas where?
Hello everyone! Sorry - been so out of touch! With my daughter graduating and prom things have been crazy! I love my daughter, but will be glad when all this drama is over - girls are a little more maintenance! My son loves the Navy! He is still in GL in A school and loves the corpseman field. Last week they were sticking each other with needles. Not really my idea of fun, but its what he wants to do . . . hoping he will come memorial weekend for my daughter's graduation . . waiting to see if his leave gets approved.
Any word on a gathering? Hope everyone is well!
I hope he is ok! Is he on his way to his ship now?
