Hi everyone,
I heard from my son tonight around 6:30pm so excited and soooo good to hear his voice. He sounded good and says I should be receiving a letter in next few days because got to write on Sunday. Sounds like he's been doing alot of watch duty. So I look forward to his letter to find out more...Yeah 30 days to go...way to go SHIP 07 DIV 079. Can't wait to see the pic posted...Now I can put down my cell phone for the night.
Thanks...what a great pic of div079....mar 2nd will be here before we know it....can,t wait.
Thank you... I can't find my boyfriend though. Neither can his mom and sister, we are all very worried. We sent the picture to him for him to circle himself. I think he may be 18 in from the top right but it's really hard to tell. =/
it could be that he had watch when the pic was taken or could have been at dental. I hope you find out soon if he was in the pic and if not why not :-)
yeah my guy decided to be head of security watch so that is possible =) we think he's in the backrow but we really can't tell!
he actually turned out having watch! I am so relieved!
You too!! =)
If you haven't checked out the new encouragement questionnaire in the discussions be sure and check it out. It is funny and has a great paragraph of encouragement for battle stations. This is the one I made for my daughter, you may have to tweak it a little since my Sailor is a girl. I hope you all like it :-)
