Oldest off to Grad School

Hello and Welcome!
I have created this blog with hope of encouraging parents who have children leaving for college and are as stressed as I was when my first child left the nest.
My hope is it will be a place where I can express how I am adjusting to my children growing up and finding their place in the world.
My oldest left for grad school this morning.
Later this week my second child leaves for college and I will have two children at home. My responsibilities are in transition now. My younger two are teenagers and seem to be in less need of my help than they use to be.
I am beginning to see that I too must find my new place in the world.

There is still a microwave to be bought and a few other college dorm room items, so I guess this is where I need to end this blog for today and get back to my responsibilities as my son's
personal shopping assistant.
