The girls leave for Temple tomorrow . . . no photos, no words . . . just a knot in my throat trying to keep the tears jammed down just a little bit further.

Come visit for a weekend, we'll take your mind off your troubles.
Oh! Sad and exciting at the same time. They'll be great and think of all the knitting you'll get done.
If it's any condolance, I never called my mom so much as when I was in college. We'd talk a few times a day. This may or may not be a good thing, you'd have to ask her :)
Just found your blog. Like it alot. I hope you're doing okay, and that your girls are settled in their dorms and excited about starting classes. As for you. . . well, you will adjust. Eventually. It helps to focus on how those lovely girls will be so busy turning into cool adults -- and all because you got them started! :-) Cheers to you!
