This is what they are meant to do. But dang! It hurts.
We made a lot of memories leading up to the big day, however I'll have to save that for another time. It is still hard to put into words what I feel.
I tried to take photos with my
We left the other three girls at home and brought Stan the man with us.
During Mass, I couldn't help think of how comforting and blessed one is to celebrate Mass the day you arrive in college town, and on such a beautiful feast day! I LOVE being Catholic!
We were with her until 4:30-ish, helping her unpack, grocery shop, etc. Then it was time to say good-bye. :(
Her dorm room decor is darling; she did such an amazing job shopping and pulling it together over the summer. She is HAPPY! David and I are ADJUSTING.
In 48 hours she landed a lifeguard job at the university pool, joined the Pro-Life group on campus, and signed up for the Catholic Mass carpool, (she doesn't have a car and the church is too far to walk to). She has met a slew of new friends, all nursing students, and many in the same dorm that she is in. Welcome Week is keeping her very busy, enjoying her new life, and classes begin on Monday.
As for me...
Blessed Virgin Mary, Pray for her and all college students!
