I got a letter today.  He said that he feels better. He even put a couple of jokes in the letter.  I'm so happy and proud of him.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for the words of encouragement. I haven't heard from my son since his last call. I had some friends come by and pray with me and my family for his strength and guidance.

I have been reading a lot of post regarding our Sailors being sent over seas.  My sailor is in A school but in support of all the Sailors and their families I am suggesting that we put blue candles up every where.  FB, Twitter, email.  Some of us are unable to have candles at work.  Let's plaster social media with Blue Candles.…

Does anyone know how often our SR's get to call. I got a call last week and my son was really homesick and his spirit was down. I've been very prayerful and anticipating his next call. 

Hello ladies,

My son is stationed on USS Somerset in San Diego CA. hes having mail issues. When a physical address is requested is it a good idea to use the Ships address or do you think a PO box will work better. He applied for a CA drivers license and use the ships address. hes been waiting for it for a while now. How dependable is a ships mailing system. any info would be greatly appreciated. Anabela

Dear Navy Moms:

I want you all to know that I remember what it was like for me (so long ago). I had to remind myself on a daily basis that "my little boy" was becoming a young man and he was growing up (without me). That was hard to swallow, but I managed to make it through. All these new experiences that your kids are having are very normal. The way they handle those new challenges are mostly depended on what sort of mindset each of them have. Of course there are going to be…

I can't tell you the last time I been on here.  I posted comments, even connected with NavyMoms like myself who kid(s) have just started boot camp, graduated, went to A school, & stationed to many different parts of the United States or overseas.  My son finished A school, was looking forward to coming home for the holidays.  The day he left to come home, my father died unexpectedly!!!!  I had to wait to my son came home to tell him I had to leave the following morning…
