Oh Graceism.....I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU AND YOUR DAUGHTER !!!!!  Now you can rest easy and enjoy the rest of this crazy ride.  She's a very strong woman and didn't quit...I guess she takes after her mom.

Danagagirl - Can't wait to spend the next 19 weeks with you!!!  I'm sure it'll be alot less stressful than this part of the journey!  LOL

I am all up for an Alumni group - after we're done here I will rename "us" to add Alumni and I sincerely hope you all come back and visit so we can keep in touch.  It would mean a lot to me.

PRAYERS TONIGHT AS BS21 BEGIN !!!!!!!  I can't wait to hear from the moms with new Sailors tomorrow!!!!!

That is a beautiful letter Missync!  You put my feelings into words.  I'm praying for all of the divisions & my candle is burning tonight.

Congratulations to your daughter, Graceism!  She must be extremely proud of herself.  

Comment by graceism on November 3, 2011 at 9:18pm
Hello fellow Moms....I have great news and testimony to the power of prayer....As many of you know my Sailor was being chalenged with the PRONE Float requirement....well, we are down to the last week and she passed!!! She is a stronger person because of this experience...I told her in a couple of my letters that you guys were praying for her and that really touched her...she even mentioned it in her letters...I cut some of the prayers out and pasted them on the pages of my letter so she could see the prayers for herself...Well, after 20 tries she conquered it and her attitude is so positive...I must be honest, I was hesitating to get excited about the travels to Great Lakes because I was not sure she was going to graduate...so everything is on track...m emotions are live and kicking and I am so anxious...Thanks to everyone who is praying for our Sailors -- don't stop!!!!!!

Beautiful letter,missync!  Prayers for the 3 divisions going through(we think!)!
Comment by tripletmom+2 on November 3, 2011 at 9:09pm
Candle is burning bright for tonight BS21 division!  Because we don't know for sure which div. is there tonight, I am praying (as usual) for ALL of our divisions!!!!
Comment by missync1-04-823 on November 3, 2011 at 9:00pm

To my son, who makes me so proud every day, I wish you well in your endeavors tonight, along with your mates. I have my candle burning for you all, and my heart is bursting with pride. I do not want to be with you tonight, because this is YOUR shining achievement, your moment, your big leap toward your own life and your own future.

I love you.  I miss you.  And these women and I (plus Jimbo) all love and support you, as I support all of theirs. Till tomorrow I wait for your voice, and till next week, your hug...my candle will burn for you.

Thank you for your sacrifice, your courage, and your honor. 

Love,

Mom

Thanks for the continued prayers.  Although my son won't be graduating with yours I would like to keep in touch.  I agree with nbrothers.  Being able to share and talk with you all has helped make this journey much easier.
