My daughter just started college and today got this giant banner for her high school gym. She won the CIF Scholar Athlete last year and now gets to have this banner hang in the school gym forever. I guess it is a pretty big deal to win this award out of all the Northern California female athletes, she was the best overall scholar and athlete. I'm missing her something terrible today. I think it is just wrong to raise up a child and then drop them off with a bunch of strangers and expect that they fend for themselves. I don't think I will ever get used to the idea. I drove her car to work today too, which didn't help the missing her part either. I guess I had better get some quilting done. That always makes me feel better and it helps clean the house a little bit too. Plus, it makes other people feel good when they are having a bad day. I just really feel like curling up on the couch instead. :(

congratulations! It is hard when your kids are not at home, Keeping busy is the best way to cope.
what an honor...and true, empty nest is the mother's scourge...painful as labor but lasts longer...
This is amazing! Time will bring you some peace! It reminds me of Halloween when we allow our children to take candy from strangers...I have never felt good about that!
