Aw Marle, congrats to your daughter for getting her education-- and hugs to you.
My daughter just left for college again.... and she's all the way in fla!! I cried for days.
I walk by her room and have to shut the door. She is my rock, she is my peace.... she is amazeing.... and she is 'gone'. It's so difficult. In addition, she is studying in SPAIN this year (next semester), there are times I feel like I will loose my mind-- having her so far away.
HOWEVER, as we know..... we aren't supposed to have things in life 'forever', even our own children.
I guess we have to take solace in the knowledge that they are doing exactly what we wanted..... moving on to be productive, educated, loving adults. We did our job.
Now what do we do???? Lol.
Guess it's about finding ourselves now too........................
Love,
Cessy
