I am finally actually having a wonderful day that's pretty stress free. I have needed one for a while.

My kiddo leaves town on Saturday! It was a bit of a cry fest, but it also made me happy that the kid is 21, and raised happy enough that he was tearful, telling me I was a great mom, and that he would miss me, and I could tell he REALLY meant it.

What a sweetheart. I refuse to cry at goodbyes (so many in my life) I just kind of mentally convince myself that as long as I care about the person it doesn't matter where they are on the globe.

I did cry on the way home. Because, like it or not (I do like it) I have the kind of kid that just calmed me right down, and that I adored, completely, from the moment he emerged. LOL, I call him the Anna Whisperer (I am similarly able to manage his freakouts, because BOY do I understand them, LOL) and I will miss his real, physical presence, the kind of presence who would give me a hug whenever I needed one and vice versa.

My Creator gave me the coolest kid in the universe, so I am trying to focus on HIS future happiness (Tucson was not kind to him) not my sadness, because lets face it, of all the things I am proud of, I believe I helped shape a really great kid into the kind of man I am PROUD to send out into the universe, because he is genuinely GOOD.

So, grateful, the husband is oddly similarly weepy thought he would be all stoic, but he SO isn't.

Anna
