    Enjoy every minute yo can with him because when he is gone you will wish you did! My son left the 21st. I can't wait to see him again.
    Welcome to the group.

    Thanks CoachD! Yep, I miss my son a great deal, but I am also extremely proud of him. I am sure the Navy will make fine young sailors out of our boys, and I appreciate all of the other parents who are sacrificing time with their sons and daughters so they can serve. Already looking forward to seeing Aaron at PIR, and he isn't even done processing yet!

    On a sad note, I will be selling his car tomorrow afternoon as he will not be needing it again for a while! (He is going to save up between now and Christmas and buy something more reliable, so it's all part of the plan...won't be easy though.)

    Interesting that you are a football coach, as I am a football referee...
