feel the pain.

the pain of wondering if I will ever get another letter, a phone call, or even a hug, a kiss.

no I may not be some proud Navy wife, or Navy mom, but I am a Navy girlfiend.

Hello all, I am proud and honored to have joined Navy for Moms. My son is leaving for Boot Camp on June 14th 2010. And I am super excited and nervous for him and me, but most of all I have so many questions as to how many family members they allow to attend his graduation? If any of you would please help and advise me on what to expect when my son leaves and how graduation will be:)

Thank You!!!

Proud Mom!!!

My Daughter leaves for boot camp on August 11, 2010. I am so proud of her but yet so sad to see her go. I was a single mom for the 1st 14 years of her life she is my only child and I am going to miss her to death..... My husband works 12 to 14 hrs, a day, so I am getting a puppy this weekend I know this will not replace my daughter not being here but hopefully it helps a little. After boot camp she is going to Pencacola Fl. for Aviation School. Any advice on how to cope…
