Anyone here been there when a ship comes in? I want to hear about it so I can think about that instead of the delay. Do we wait by the shore for hours an the ship comes in slow?

I heard from my son today as well. He was off the ship from shortly after Christmas to two days ago. I am much happier with him back onboard. :-) He hasnt slept well the last few weeks but said his first day back in his rack he crashed and slept 10 hours! That's my boy! He is glad to be reunited with his buddies and tho he knows we all want them home he is sure this last bit will go fast. So...hang in there ladies...We got this! I can't wait to be in VA welcoming the whole crew home! Love our sailors! <3

Got a call from my sailor today, I really needed it. He said they were bummed of the news, but know there is a job to be done. Where did all this mature strength come from? I told him I cried, and he said...I had no doubt mom...but just stay strong, we will be home soon. Wow, from boy to man in 6 months. So proud of them all! So glad to have you all...see you in VA soon!

Ladies, Just saw the news about yours sons and daughters having to stay out a little while longer. I know how disappointing this news must be for you all and wanted to give you all great big Navy Mom hugs. I am praying for them all to remain safe and for the remaining time to go quickly for you all. My son served 2 deployments with the Truman and the first was 7 months, the 2nd 9 months, and that one was an eternity.

I got the best email from my cousin today whose dad and himself were career military....he sent his condolences that my sailor had to stay out longer, but said he would have been more surprised if they came in on time with what is going on. My tears are falling too, but my pride keeps me going! Let's stay strong, and keep our sailors in our prayers. (And Reiki in my house!)
