Ok mama's, I need your warm wishes, good thoughts and calming prayers, please. My little "blue" baby leaves today. I will take my son to the recruiting station this afternoon and he will spend the night in a hotel. (why I can't take him straight to the hotel , why he even has to go spend his last night at a hotel, is beyond me but I'm sure there must be a reason). He will do his last "formal" swearing in ceremony in the morning and then fly to San Diego. My head knows he will be just fine, and this is only a stepping stone in the life of a wonderful young man who will enjoy many successes. It's my heart that is screaming keep him safe and close by. It's been great seeing his friends wish him well, his sisters, dad, nieces and nephew spend extra time, making memories. I don't know of a single day that I have not seen him or talked with him at least multiple times, like all moms do. What will I do with those extra minutes?

From a mom who has been there...Cry CRY CRy. It will not hurt you. Then stop crying and think about what you can get away with now. Even if you have other children... you can get away with some things since you have 1 less child in the house. The thoughts, even if you don't carry them out may make you giggle.! God Bless
