Maybe now you can stop being nervous!:shake:

Unfortunately, there is always something else to be nervous about, if one is so inclined: I-Day, BCT, semester grades, PFTs, recognition, commitment, graduation, UPT, and so on. . .
 
you are soooo not helping!!! :biggrin:

Sorry about that! DW and I have tried to let go and let him fly on his own. DS has had some ups and downs so far at USAFA including injury and academic issues. We listen and encourage him and provide whatever support we can but this is his deal and he owns it. We have read on the Parent's Forums where some parents are trying to arrange last minute rides for their cadets, do their cadet's income taxes, and trying to figure out how lost cadet flight caps can be replaced. Really?

I get being nervous. I think that's natural for all of us parents. But we do our cadets/midshipmen a great disservice if we allow our nervousness to turn into a desire to manage their SA experience.
 
I think once he is accepted and there, the nervousness will change a bit. But I still think I will have it! I will do my best to follow in your footsteps Blackbird. I am not going to fix stuff for him, I make him do it now and I will make him do it then.

I completely agree with you about a disservice. They have to learn to fight their own battles...even if that is the battle to figure out how to replace a lost flight cap.
 
I sincerely hope that your DS gets the appointment he desires and excels at his chosen SA.
