My Empty Nest

I am going to follow Preston Bailey's advice and vary my posts.

I was going to talk about shoes, but here I am in Greeley, Colorado staying at the Sodbuster Inn Bed and Breakfast (which I highly recommend) wide awake thinking about when I brought my baby girl home, and now she is starting her freshman year at the University of Northern Colorado. Orientation, long day, but much better info than I got at my son's college.



I can't believe that she's going to college, and she is so ready to be here and out on her own. Now I want her to still need me, but she doesn't anymore, at least not in the way I would like her too!

She's moved into her dorm, will meet her roommate on Thursday and on Monday she starts school. And on Friday we leave her here. I had very hard time with my first child going to college but this is so much harder. I don't know why it is what it is.

Hopefully, she'll do what her brother has done in the past and text me about 11pm one night a week. I'm not sure how my son decided to do that but I always looked forward to those texts. So I hope my daughter does too. I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART! I know you've been here for a few months, and I know you can stand on your own two feet, but I hope you know I will always be here for you.
