Ship 2 Div 927...Looking for other Moms with kids on this ship and division
Hi there,
I thought it would be fun to see if there are other Moms with kids in this same group. I have already joined the May 20, 2011 PIR group but thought it would be fun to meet others in this same group. Just to keep tabs on each other and our kiddos! Since the 927 Div is a special division , maybe once we start hearing from our children, boyfriends, girlfriends and spouses we can get to know about each other and all of them and thier accomplishments! Lets brag about them here!
Let me hear what you think? Then when PIR arrives we can find each other to support them and be proud together.

Yea something is definitely going around, hope our boys get over whatever they have and finish bootcamp so we can see them! Still no word on BS yet? Hopefully we'll find out soon.
Bjosewski: It took awhile for my letters to get to my SR too. He wrote me a couple letters in the beginning worried that I forgot about him or I didn't care about him anymore lol... I felt so bad because I letters weren't getting to him. Once he received them; mail came and went. (Sometimes it took awhile though.) SNAIL MAIL truly. =)
Yea definitely keep your little one bundled up. I was looking at the weather for this week's graduation and it looks like its going to rain, so ladies bring your umbrellas, it might rain next week. Woohooo! we can officially say WE ARE SEEING OUR SR'S next week. Now back to stalking our mailman for our letters!

Well just 9 more days!! Someone on our PIR group suggested changing our profile pictures to a blue candle in honor of all of the SR's doing BS21 this week! (Even though we have no idea when our guys and gals will be doing theirs) It is possible that 927 could be going tonight or wed/Thurs. BJ's husband's letter did say "this week" and I think those could be the dates. I am going to light my candle tonight at 8 pm Great Lakes time and be thinking positive thoughts for those doing BS! Then I will do it again on Wed/Thurs. Please post immediately if you get your "Call" Best of Luck and God Bless all of our soon to be Sailors!!

My SR told me his div (927) is an all guys division. But I will change my picture once I get home. We don't even know when our boys are going! But I will be praying for them and will be looking out for mail.
