I'm feeling anxious for you, Nancy. I know this isn't the same thing, but I flew 3000 miles so I could be there when our son left for Afghanistan. I even had the doctor give me a mild sedative I could take that morning so I didn't blubber all over the place. I mean he was a grown man, 35, but I was so sick with worry. I took the pill and didn't blubber. Actually I was good.
Your son is still so young and inexperienced. I know exactly how you feel. Scared, excited, sad, happy. Seek out your friends when you get home, okay? I'll be thinking of you.
Hugs to you...does this mean "empty nest?"
ReplyDeleteKeep cool and don't cry all over your son. At least not in front of everyone.
ReplyDeleteOh, that's gotta be hard saying good-bye the first time you send them off to college. Poor mom.
ReplyDeleteI hope he has a great school year!
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope you're keeping your sanity :)
