Dad is flying with her to Kansas.
Please pray for an event-less trip.
I'm not ready.

Praying so hard that their trip is pleasant, your dd is filled with courage and joy, and that your heart is comforted, Laura. I can only imagine - my heart is breaking just thinking about it!

Praying for you and for safe travels for your family.
I know how hard this is, my heart feels your saddness.
God bless,

Just saw this, Laura. and many prayers. Aisa was chatting with her a few days ago, and she seemed to be in good spirits. But I know the separation is hard for all of you.

Thanks, Vanna, for such a sweet offer!
My first-born is heading off to her college move in, 1300 miles from home. Mommy is having a hard time dealing.

praying...
I cried and cried when my "little" sister left last year for her freshman year and I'm sure I'll be that way again in less than 2 weeks
I can't imagine my own children...
Anyway, I'm praying for you!
God bless,
Christine

Hugs and Prayers. I can't imagine sending my dd off to college. It brings tears my eyes.
I grew up in KS. I hope she likes it there. I miss it.

Laura,How are this this morning?
Day 1 done 
Personally DD#2 left on Thursday and it is only 35 minutes away, not your DD's plane ride or my DD#1's 4:15 car ride (which as a senior she will do on her own this year).
I had a good wallow with sniffles on Thursday night.
On Friday I scrubbed my bathroom, including the drawers,created DD#3's homeschool planner templets washed down and reorganized the pantry planned, on paper a schedule even June Cleaver couldn't keep up with and made a new recipe for dinner.
(Not sure what today will hold but probably less solitary activities. I like to wallow in spurts.)
Don't worry,in your own way you will make it through , especially when she gives you that all too brief phone call to update you on her new experiences.
Of course it is then that I am filled with the bittersweet realization that I am an observer/sharer of these new experiences not a participant, and yet that is what I have been preparing her for all these years.
