    Yeah I am so proud of him already! Sometimes just seeing something that reminds me of him brings me to tears of pride and joy. 

    I am so excited for Charleston!! I'm excited for the weather. I'm from Buffalo, NY and am totally sick and tired of snow. It will be a nice change. 

    I am also so thankful he's in the nuke program for a different reason--this way we get a slower introduction to the military life. While he will be in school insane hours a day, he won't be deployed so I'm thinking it will be a nice way to ease into it.

    I think it's so awesome that your son is carrying on the Navy tradition in your family! Three generations now, I bet his Grandparents are proud!

    I got your friend request and accepted it. I sent you the info on the ribbons. Let me know if you didn't get it. Or if it doesn't make sense. I am having to use my cell for internet for a few days while my computer is getting de-bugged of viruses. Sometimes what you type on here with a phone comes out looking weird with long spaces and no puncuation.

    So happy to hear you got a letter today!! :) My son's PIR is also 2/18/11. He is ship09 div075. I keep waiting for a letter or a phone call. Anything! I miss him. I'm so glad he's in bootcamp though. He needs it! I'll take any apology I can get from him. He has been really hard to deal with for some time now. I know they are all young and just growing up but OMG it has been a long two years!! I don't expect much in his letter. I know he loves us and misses us. My children are very close and very good friends. There are 5 of them. He just started taking the wrong turns here and there and well, I'm looking forward to a letter from him. I hope he is doing well and I am really excited to see him in February. I can't wait! I know you can't change them but I think the Navy will bring out all the good things in him. Maybe help him reach his potential!! I'm such a rookie at all this Navy stuff. I have a lot of Navy in my family but never as close as a child.

    Enjoy your letter you got today. I'm sure it put a big smile on your face and I'm sure you have read it over and over and over! I know I will! :)

    Thanks for the kind words. I didn't think I would get a call, but was really hoping for a letter. Just received an email from my daughter and she said she got one today from her brother or as she put it---Petty Officer Laundry Man. LOL! Can't wait to hear from him. I am glad to hear you are getting letters and hope all is well with your SR.
