Stephanie: Congratulations! I just became a Navy Fiancée while my man was boot camp as well! I'm so proud of my sailor.
Comment by Libby(CJs Mom) on May 11, 2010 at 11:45am
Wow! We were able stay all weekend and enjoyed every minute with him we could. Everyone said how impressive the PIR would be, but it exceeded our expectations.

Congratulations to everyone and their new sailors! The pride we felt in watching him was only exceeded by the pride he felt in himself.

It looks like our son will be heading to Virginia on Wednesday. There is one other sailor from his division and another from their brother div going to the same school. Good luck to you all as you head into the next phase of navy life.

I guess it's time to change our handles now.

So proud of all our SAILORS and had the time from heaven this past grad weekend :) I'm actually staying in GL for another week to hang out with my sailor during his liberty after indoc classes and whatnot. Thanks so much ladies for providing much needed support and great answers and awesome stories throughout this whole thing. I feel a special bond with this group because we all went through this together! Good luck to our sailors for the journey that's just about to start.... chapter 2 :) There are such great things in store for them. Love!

That was awesome :-D My boyfriend is now in Connecticut, and I am going over there and staying all weekend this weekend, and probably every weekend until he can leave for the weekends... that ceremony was amazing and I can't believe how quickly this weekend has passed! I hope everyone had an amazing time!
Comment by mvpmom on May 9, 2010 at 12:46am
Sorry you have to go:( We will try to hook up with Sailors without loved ones at six flags. Mom2sailorsX3 my son has been real sick but still wants to sight see he falls asleep when we ride in the car it's hard not to not take him back to the hotel and sleep. Yes I know he's a man now but I can still think it! I ran into a mom in the laundry room from 179 and she said that whole group was really sick the entire BC. Have a safe trip back and I all be praying for you as you go do this again for the third time in a few days. I get cold and wind at home so I agree. Old mom, I couldn't get on our sight so I went to Dads4navy.com to read until I could get on. It was great I like the videos. You have a safe trip. Lee Sailors Mom ,what is B and C school? God Bless You All and Happy Mothers Day to the Navy's finest Moms!
