My oldest daughter graduated from college this spring. She finished a B.A. in Psychology in 4 years – no small feat these days. She then proceeded to find a full-time job, locate an apartment, and move out on her own. She is happy, motivated, focused and determined. She lives a life of Christian faith. She has a boyfriend who, near as I can tell, is a salt-of-the-earth young man who adores and respects her very much. In short she has officially cut the apron strings and has embarked on a life of her own.
I already miss her more than words can describe.
Someone once told me that from the day a child is born, a parent’s task is to prepare them to leave the home.
…….Success is indeed bittersweet.
