    Mimito4, I am also in Rowlett very close to Rockwall. My son went in March 2012, and now he is stationed in Italy. It is very hard being so far away, but boot camp was the hardest time for me. It is still hard now, and I realize I will always cry when he leaves! I miss him so much. He is our oldest and first to leave home.

  • Stephen'sMom

    Bonnie-Codysmom,

    Where do you live south of dallas?  I am in Cedar Hill.  

  • Stephen'sMom

    Ladies of DFW Group.  I am sorry, but life just keeps holding me from attending the dinners.  I have had a rough month between having the H1N1 flu and some other things going on.  I am determined I am going to make the February dinner!

  • MADre

    Stephen'smom, hope you get to feeling better. I heard of the H1N1 was really bad. Best of luck!

  • cjsmom

    Hello, 

    I am also new to N4M, my son is shipping out to BC today,  I feel so confused, and clueless, He didn't give me any information. all I know is he will be at Great Lakes for BC.  I am located in Huffman

  • MADre

    Hello cjsmom,

    I was a terrible mess for the first two weeks. You will receive one short call telling you "mom I've arrived love you, bye" Two weeks later expect a box with all his personal things. It will be at least 2-3 weeks before you hear from him. I slept with my phone close to me just in the case he called. He will call at random if their crew passes review they get time off to visit Chicago or catch up with sleep. Write to him often its the only way to communicate with them. He will be fine mom, best of luck!

  • cjsmom

    Hello MADre

    Thank you, he did just send me a text that he is on his way to the airport, 

  • VKat

    Cjsmom you may be clueless now but by the time you're through looking through this website you will know more than your son. LOL! Start writing letters to him today and write often. Once you get his form letter you can then mail them. He will need them and appreciate them. Look around the site and join the other groups that pertain to your son and what he's going to be doing. There is a wealth of information and support here
  • mary

    Hello ladies, haven't been on in quite a while. My son has been in for 2 yrs now, I have yet made it to a dinner. Would love to and always put it on my calender but the last year and a half I have been in school and haven't made one yet. I am in grand prairie. 

  • Aggiemom

  • Bonnie-Codysmom

  • A's Mom

    Aggiemom, I know Athens well, I went to school in Athens for 2 years, still go to alumni games sometimes and Cardette Reunions :).  Lots of wonderful memories there.  I grew up in Combine but now live in West Texas.  My S.R. will be graduating Boot Camp in 2 weeks (good Lord willing).

    Hello, we live in Houston.  My grandson Sean graduated boot camp in Great Lakes, Chicago Jan 24.  He got into So. Carolina yesterday where he is in A school, nurclear training.  I am new to all of this web-site stuff, but want to learn and keep up. Sean loved boot camp, challenges and all.  When we saw him at graduation and saw him stand still for 2 1/2 hours I knew they worked miracles with him.  Before then, when he was still, he wasn't still. 

  • QuiltingMom

    Hi everyone! My son graduated BC on January 17th. He is now in Gulfport, MS for Sea Bee school. Navy for Mom's really helped me during the BC time. I learned so much and it helped me with the PIR. Its a crazy time up there. Thought I might freeze to death up there. LOL

    I live in the DFW area in Roanoke. How often does this group get together?

  • harpist mom

    Hi Quilting Mom, The DFW Navy Mom group meets for dinner once a month. Our next dinner is Thursday, February 20th, 7:00 p.m., at Celebration Restaurant on Lovers Lane in Dallas. We would love to meet you! Please let us know if you plan to join us so that we can include you in our reservation count.

  • QuiltingMom

    Hi Harpist Mom, would love to come but I will be on a cruise. Maybe I can make the next one. :-)

  • Ruth, Gun's Mom

  • Texas Sailor Mom

    Is there any Victoria Mom's? 

  • Stephen'sMom

    I have a sailor now!  His PIR was this past Friday (1/31/24).  Awesome experience!  Now that's how a graduation should be done!  He is now in Goose Creek, SC for nuke school and will be an EM.  I am going to try again to make it to the dinner this month.  May nothing stand in my path this time!

  • Aggiemom

    Slylett - i have not received anything from my son. hoping the box arrives today. i am not thinking he would have been in an 800 or a 900 division, so maybe that's why you got all your info earlier? Congrats Stephen'sMom on your new sailor! woo hoo to you and yours!

  • Mamma Marsha

  • TexasMom

    J's mom I'm in Fort Worth. My son is on the USS Nimitz. I've met with the navy mom's in Dallas but wished we had a Fort Worth group. Always good to have inside information. Hang in there it gets better.
