Well, the day is fast approaching and I must admit I am now feeling a bit nervous about this whole thing. I am not quite sure how to put into words my emotions. I guess this is what all parents go through to some degree. We send our children on missions, off to college, war, etc. Most expect them to return I think. For me, TJ is not just leaving for school, he is leaving to start his life. It's time for him even if I am not yet ready to let him go. I suppose a mother never really is. I want him to find happiness and joy in what he is doing. I want him to be proud to serve his country and serve honorably.
I AM A PROUD PARENT OF A SAILOR!

I know just what you are feeling Suzanne - I think all of my children know how hard it is for me to let go. I love that sweet grandson of mine - he has always shown me love and even made it a point to come and visit his old grandparents when he lived here, that is a lot for a young man to do. He always makes me feel loved. I will miss him more then he will ever know. When he comes home on leave - I will still not be able to see him. So I wonder when I will see him again. I am proud of you too TJ. I am proud of Rylee and I think you both have the best Mom in the world. Kim too! Grandma
