I second the motion for Emily being the mom.  Happy Mother's Day Emily/Mom.
Comment by nvmomma on May 6, 2011 at 11:08pm

I think the real mom is Emily..;)

Comment by mommajo on May 6, 2011 at 10:01pm

Love the apron thought!  My mom wore one to cook (get dirty) and another to hostess.  My grandmother made tons of them and sold them.  Good memories.

Have a great weekend and Happy Mother's Day, all.  So, if we're a family who is the real Mom?  I"m definately a kid, learning and amazed by all.

A few weeks ago ( maybe months ) every Sailor seemed to want to go to Japan, now Washington State.  Who knows...
Comment by NavyMomLG on May 6, 2011 at 4:14pm
Looks like we have quite q few in PS Class 1104 - there is hope that I will know what is going on over the next six months! Does anyone know if the sections are all doing the same thing at the same time?

Love the interest in aprons - I always felt so old fashioned about wearing them, but the are so handy to wipe your hands on and keep you free of flour dust.

Aggie08Mom, my son is 1104-6 and his power school grad date is Oct. 7.
Comment by Kat (MM Nuke) on May 6, 2011 at 2:42pm
I used to live in Oregon and am familiar with Oregon and Washington.  Both of them have drier, desert areas to the east of the Cascade mountain range.  Unfortunately though, along the coastline does get a lot of rain, hence all the greenery.  Summers are pretty nice though, cool and less rain. My son is hoping to be stationed in Washington too, which will make it nice to see family that is in Washington and Oregon, but still quite a distance for us from Phoenix.  Might be my incentive to move out of this heat and dry, brown environment.

NF mom- thanks for dispelling some WA myths. I live in the central part of the state. Haven't seen rain in quite a while AND it's been like 70 here. Super windy though, gusts up to 30mph. 

 

I cannot believe that the sister would disclose that information! It's our responsibility to keep our loved ones safe as well...

Comment by Aggie08Mom (ship 02,div. 903) on May 6, 2011 at 1:13pm
Thanks, Kat.
