While I'm excited to begin our new school year and am busily doing the necessary preparations toward that goal, this beginning also signals the end of life as we've known it for the past 22 years. My oldest will pack her bags and head to off grad school come September. Our cheery "good morning" exchange and cups of coffee with the sunrise are coming to an end. I've made the most of them this summer, lingering as long as possible before starting the business of the day, savoring our last moments together. These last 3 weeks are going to be over far too soon.
I know that the future is bright for my girl. I know she'll be with us again for Christmas. And we'll be counting down the days towards her homecoming.
