    Default Well wouldn't you just know it

    Well my youngest son left to go back to the Naval Acadamy early this morning. Boy I hated to see him go. He's in his 3rd year there. He has to go out on a 40 foot sail boat. Part of his learning. He will be 21 while he is out to sea. Its a little sad for me that he had to leave so soon. Oh Well. He's a great kid.

    Yes I'm out of my mind. It's a dark and scary place in there.

    I can understand how you are feeling right about now My son was home for his holidays from his job and left last week ,he is 22.

    I get to see him once or twice a year , it is hard. When he was getting ready to leave and head back he said to me "Now mom, don't start crying".....LOL!

    Your son sounds so wonderful
