Our daughter has finished college and will be coming home soon before striking out on her own in the big wide world.
Our son turned 20 yesterday - no more teenagers! A bittersweet moment. He is still on his semester abroad, so we have not been able to celebrate these two great occasions with either of them. And they will home this summer at different times, so we don't even know when we will be able to have a family celebration!
I'm not sure I'm ready to let go yet of all the family togetherness time. I've had plenty of practice since our daughter left for college 4 years ago in another country, but somehow I am just now coming to grips that they will both be gone for good very soon and our ability to all meet as one unit is dwindling. Thank goodness for Skype. We would be lost without it, even though we have yet to figure out if there is a way to do a 3 way video chat.
I am excited for all the possibilities that my daughter sees in the future. I will be even more excited when she decides on a job location that does not scare the bejeebers out of me!
