Wanted: Therapists from DU. Daughter heading off to school. [View all]

Mom and I are a bit distraught 😩. Not to be dramatic, but feels like losing someone that “passed on.”
She is really smart and I know she’s going to be great, at least we all think so. Life can throw you 100 mile an hour fastballs.
Will miss everything about her. A joy every step of the way.
Hopefully we’ve done the best for her. She has it so much more together than we ever did. I gave her a copy of “Rules for Dating My Daughter” to put the fear of something into prospective suitors. She got a chuckle out of it. I gave her 500 copies to distribute among the university community
People will say it’s time for them to fly and I get that, but also remember all the crap and angst I went through to get a degree, but I never let her know how hard it was doing it myself mostly.
Guess I should chill and be content that her experience was waaaay better than mine in the 70’s. Dang I am old!
I do know one thing. She has a strong moral compass and injustice really bothers her. Voting in November (all of us)!
Thanks for reading. As Trae would say; love y’all.
