Goodbyes are funny things. Today I said goodbye to my college son as he headed back to school and it wasn't so bad. I told him I loved him, gave him a hug, and shut the door.
I remember dropping him off the first time. Saying goodbye was hard, very hard. We both cried.
It gets easier - not because I love him less, but because the heart adapts. And experience says goodbye isn't likely to be forever.Labels: saying goodbye
