    Thanks for the friend request.  We are just beginning the process of making the final decision to join.  My daughter Kennedi is a Senior this year in high school and is about 90% sure about the Navy.  I would love to talk with you about the whole process leading up to the final decision.  I am trying to not influence her decision.

    Nae - Kiaira's Mom,

    Thank you for the friend request!!!

    No dear NavyMom, you are NOT overdoing it!!!!  Many moms feel the same way - terrified that they will miss that call.  Forwarding your home calls to your cell phone is just what you need to do!!!! 

    It is hard to always keep it together for other children who are still at home when one leaves for bootcamp.  I had twin girls and the youngest of the two went right out of high school.  Her sister choose to go to college.  I tried not to show the college daughter how hard I was handling her sister leaving because I knew she was having her own hard time being separated from her twin for the first time in their lives!!!!  That's why we are here - - to help support you so you can help support not only your sailor, but your other children as well.  Both of my daughters ended up serving.  The college girl is now an Officer!!

    Oh, and I'm with the Moms of Daughters 2 group.  Long story as to why there are two groups with almost the same name, but I do think we are a much more active group.  Stop by and let us know how you are doing!!!!!!!
