Worriedmom,
So glad that you feel good---tears of joy--about how far your SR daughter has come!!
Every time I log in to here to see the latest, I get so teary eyed. To think of where I was at the beginning of this journey and how fast it is creeping up on me! I don't know if my tears are of sadness or joy!!! Can't wait to see my baby girl! I know from her letters, she has grown beyond ANY expectation I may of had! HOOYAH NAVY!!!
Hello All!
"All glory to God, who is able, through His
mighty power at work within us, to accomplish
infinitely more than we might ask or think."
Ephesians 3:20
Good Morning!
BonecrushersMom,
You're so welcome on the verses! Amazing how fast the time actually goes and yep, your SR daughter will amaze you when you see her as a Sailor!!
You are very welcome, BonecrushersMom! Glad that you are still here!
Good afternoon ladies! Thank you diannep for the cheery greeting each day and Catmom for the verses. I don't "speak up" much, but do stop in to see the countdown and what's going on. I think we are all just waiting out the days to see our wonderful kids. I realize that she wont be the 'kid' that left just a few weeks ago. She will always be my baby, but so excited to see the young woman with all her pride! Everyone have a great day!
Good Morning, Friends!
"Because of the Lord's great love we are
not consumed, for His compassions never fail."
Lamentations 3:22
Good Morning again!
Greetings on this President's Day~~
"Therefore thus says the Lord God:
'Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation,
A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure
foundation; Whoever believes will not act hastily.' "
Isaiah 28:16
