What a difference a day makes. Today has dawned dark and dreary in Chicago but I feel light as a feather.
Victoria is settling in at school. No more tears. Her smile is back. No need to worry. As if that will stop me.
Stevie is having a wonderful time exploring ND with the fresh eyes of an actual student. He went to a party last evening with lots of other transfer kids and had a great time. His advisor is the grand son of the legendary Notre Dame football coach, Frank Leahy. Stevie is walking on air.
Alex is busy seeing friends before she starts her last minute packing.
Everything is as it should be. Changing and moving. Moving and changing. I can hold on for dear life or I can continue to practice letting go. Maybe someday I will get good at it.
I just discovered you from Fridaville. Your site is gorgeous and calming and wonderful. I can't wait to explore.
I aspire to be a collage artist. Right now I'm just learning, tinkering, experimenting. I've taken a little time off lately, but you've inspired me to get going again.

Well, I got going as I said I would, thanks to you, so I included a link to your site in my latest post to introduce you to my readers.

Practice of letting go - that as a mom we begin with each new day of childhood - you would think that by the time they fly away - so many days later - we would be ready - but I cannot imagine ever really being ready for that.
