My son has been dropped off at the hotel so he can ship out to Fort Sill, Oklahoma for Army boot camp tomorrow
His momma, his sisters and his significant other have began the crying and sobbing process. I can’t stand seeing my girls cry

This too shall pass...just wait till they experience the tears of joy upon his first trip back home.

Tell him Thank You.

Congratulations. May the good Lord watch over him.

What’s his MOS going to be?

CONGRATS to Y'all for raising a Great Young Man! Thank him for his service. We will keep the Family in our prayers!

Grndchecker · 06-26-2022, 07:59 PM

You lost your lawnmower and I lost my weed eater. At least you and I verbally prepared him to withstand any harsh talk he may encounter.
Proud of that kid, I mean young man.

flywise · 06-26-2022, 08:02 PM

I bet that is a little heart breaking.

Drycreek3189 · 06-26-2022, 08:06 PM

I hope he’s ready !

I’m gonna thank him in advance for his service.

It's OK for us Dads to cry as well. We just do it differently. Congrats on raising a great young man. May he have an amazing life and tackles the goals he sets forth.

Exactly!! He’ll be fine and you’ll be amazed at the man he’ll soon become. I took that path in ‘89 and it was the best thing that could have happened to me. Be strong and know he’s in good hands!

60 Deluxe · 06-27-2022, 05:53 AM

Women and girls can be quite the emotional creatures. I usually take leave until the flood subsides. They will dry up eventually. Life has its pivotal points. Mine was when the last child left home to begin life as an adult. At first, I really felt an emptiness. My wife and I drew closer together and discussed where to go from here. It was the beginning of one of the best chapters of our life together.

smokeless · 06-27-2022, 06:10 AM

Congratulations. You’ve got a great young man there.
