I have started down the road to the empty nest.
I moved my girl into her dorm last wednesday. And school starts on Tuesday. She's home for the weekend.. and probably the next few weekends..
She is grown up.. and slowly realizing it.
I am happy and proud. And expect nothing less fron her.
She will do well.
All my time has been getting ready for this.. and works are still busy as always. So this makes me kinda preoccupied with making sure it all goes well.
My schedules are giong to change and I will make the exceptions I must to make this work for her.
As always my personal life is in the way back seat.. but I expect that to change someday.
But I am doing this ..indirectly.. so I cannot complain.. and I wont..
This is what every Dad hopes for, that start for their child..and the knowledge that he has helped as much as he should to allow his child to move to adulthood.
I wont say I have done it all.. but the past couple years have been important and I have been there for her. As it should be.
Most people are suprised im not a wreck because she has moved out and is moving on.. but as I said before.. this is what I have been striving towards.. and she is not disappointing me.. I could not be happier.
