Sending kids away to college

Re: Sending kids away to college

So my older girl comes to me in the kitchen a couple of days ago, holds on to my leg and says with gulping sobs and quivering lips: “mom, do all kids have to go away and live in their colleges?” So I said, “no, why do you ask?” She goes, “because I will not be able to handle it without my family.” And then the tears and hiccups and all that started. And I joined and we celebrated the fact that she wasn’t going away :dixsi:
