I'm not one to blog about anything! I'm not a writer, and I usually prefer to keep my business private, but since this will probably effect future Navy Mama's I chose to share. As soon as I got my form letter from my SR with his PIR date I made reservations with the first hotel I stumbled upon. After doing some more research I decided to stay at a different hotel (The Ramada) (FYI, not much better in my opinion) and called back The Great Lakes Hotel to cancel my…

Ok Mama's.........here is how it played out......and I am not finished yet!  With love.....my husband has said "DO NOT PISS THE SQUAW OFF!!"     Sooooo..........after a great deal of consideration and prep for the "C" school, we choose Days Inn in Saint George, UT.......we live on the western slope in Colorado.  Upon arriving, our son was REFUSED the right to check in because he is NOT 21!!!  On the booking.com website it does not say you must be 21 to get a room in "UTAH".  Ok, you can…

My name is Mary and my youngest son of three left for boot camp on Tuesday the 26th. I am still having a hard time talking to people about it because I start crying everytime. Those who haven't been through this think I am nuts.He is the first in our family to join any military branch so it is all new to me. I was so happy to hear about this website to share feelings and get information.

My youngest son left for boot training camp on Feb 11. I got the phone call he was there. I missed the second phone call which made me so upset. I had been waiting for that phone call that I thought was coming to my cell phone but he called the house phone while I was out. He rarely called the house before he left. I think he did not know my nor his dad cell by heart. I wrote him and told him to call my cell only if he gets a chance to call again. I have wrote several letters to him every…
