lol monica, how in the heck were you able to get sleep with a bunch of squealing girlscouts? You definitely didnt take them to see the reptiles did you lol

I think I am doing better, a bit more sore than the last two days, but not on pain meds so cant tell you really, but will see how everything turns out on monday when I go in for my check up and take the bandages off. Hopefully my newborn is an identical twin lol.

I still cant believe I havent received a letter from my son- it has been so long and am starting to have "down" moments. Maybe thats the meds, maybe its my period, but either way, he better have a good excuse for not writing lol

Roxy, welcome back! Good to know you are feeling better. We were starting to wonder about you. The ribbons are for the meet and greet and also for PIR. We are having a late meet and greet at the lounge in the Ramada for those that cant make the first meet and greet. The ribbons are fashioned in the breast cancer ribbon way. Navy blue, with your screen name on one side and your sons ship and div. on the other side. You can jazz it up with embellishments to make it unique. We are wearing them at PIR so that we can know we are all from N4M's and to make it easier to find each other. Glad you are feeling better. We missed you! Also no one has gotten any letters lately. Have you heard anything?

COLLEEN YAYYYYYYY!!!!!!! I am so glad to finally hear some new on our boys!!! So glad that you got a GOOD call! You needed it. I am sure you were scared by the 847 number after all of your bad calls. That was so sweet of him to send you money for valentines. Amazing how much they think of their mothers. Those fill in the blank letters had so much informations on them. At least my sons did. He also added his thoughts and also wrote comments about each question. I bet that phone call will hold all of us over til PIR. Glad to see our boys arent too worried about battlestations! That just makes my day! Thank you Colleen!

me either. Dereck was telling me he has seen alot of face-palm stuff. Like the V-8 commercial. Praying they pull it together, but like that atricle said, alot of the recruits that have been meek and mild show intense leadership skills during battlestations. I really think they will do well, because when it all comes down to it, we know our childrens competency. They are smart young men! They didnt "know" military when they went in, how could they? I bet they have it down pat now. Battlestations will be fun for them I think.
