Title is exactly what my dear friend Lindsay and I are going though with our daughters. They will be leaving very early in the morning. My daughter’s flight is at 6:00 am, but it’s a two hour drive to the airport. Lindsay’s daughter’s flight is about the same time and it takes her two hours to get to the airport if not a bit longer.
Our daughters want to be independent yet we get two or more calls a day. I cherish those calls as it means that she misses me and misses being home. But going so darn far away really messes me up. Almost every blogging pal or “real life” friends know that I want my kids close. I don’t consider this being over protective. I think one day that we are going to have to depend on family and close friends sticking together because we will need to .
I wish both of our young ladies a dream come true, a prosperous life to come and also the knowledge they will always have a home to come home to.
