My2Sailors My SR did not really play sports she was a cheerleader, and then she was Miss Wilbur so she also knows about doing what needs to be done for the win. I have been praying that they will pull it together and I just know they will. We all have amazing SR that know how to get the job done.

What parent has a SR that will be a Hospital Corpsman and on their way to San Antonio after boot-camp. We are just praying that they give the SR the weekend off to be with their love ones. Lets just keep our fingers cross for that.

My SR played Volleyball and Softball. Her love is softball though. She played competitively for 10 years. All travel ball. She was actually offered a college scholarship to play ball but turned it down to join the Navy. I am praying that they pull together as a team and put all their differences aside.

I am praying for the same! Girls will be girls but I just know they will come together when they need to.

I'm sure they'll pull it together. My SR played basketball, softball & threw the javeline for the track team in high school, not to mention all the years of summer ball. Can you believe we will be seeing them in 17 days!!! This has gone by so fast & so slow at the same time.

My daughetr was a cheerleader, President for ASB,and President for the county that we live in, plus she was Miss Wilbur she has the skills and knowledge to get along with others so they will pull it together. Sounds like your Sr is very athlectic so between her skills and mine of cheering them all they are all good LOL. It is hard to believe how time can go by so fast but also stand still all at the same time. Counting down the day until we see them again.

Very true girls will be girls. I know mine can be quite a little witch. She's 18 and knows everything. I use to always tease her and tell her she would be a great attorney. She has an arugment or answer or anything. But at the same time has one of the biggest hearts!

It sounds like you are talking about my SR. How funny I told mine the samething. She is also 18 and knows it all. I also told her that her RDC"s are going to love her Smart A** mouth just as much as I do. LOL My SR was going to go to college to be an attorney but went the Navy way. But she does have the biggest heart would do anything for anybody. Glad to hear I was not the only mom with such a know it all.
