So glad to have my hubs home with me. He got FC for the AECF. ;)
It's so weird having him home. He stands differently and talks sooooo much. Even when he lays down in bed, he lays down the way that he stands up (with his arms in front of him, hands over each other).
This morning he had on his Navy sweats & PT shirt. Then, he put on his BCGs and said he was ready to work out. LOL.
Hope everyone is having a good holiday with their sailors. <3

Kim, you probably don't want to have your first and last name on this site. Have people message you. You have no idea who is coming onto this page. Just a suggestion.

Merry Christmas Day to everyone. Thank you for your support during those stressful weeks not knowing if my sailor was ok and on the path for graduation. Yes he was, and he got into the exact A School he wanted. I was so overwhelmend with pride at his graduation, and also touched by how many families braved the trip to be there with their special sailor. I felt a real kinship with everyone. There was one other sailor from Oregon my son introduced me to, and I felt so sad his family wasn't able to attend. I wish I knew so he could have gotten liberty and gone with us for the day. I have a photo of him and hope I can somehow get it to his family.someday. My son was estatic we were there; he was all over his cell phone, a great big, juicy hamburger at Chili's and hanging out at our hotel eating hot tamales (the candy) and drinking coke. Too soon he had to leave, but it was a wonderful day I will remember forever. Chicago and the Great Lakes area have some of the nicest people you could meet. My son was congratulated and thanked for his service to our country everwhere we went. May every Christmas be as bright!
