Letting Go

I have been working on graduation announcements and reception invitations this afternoon. I wish I could have been looking at slimming pills reviews instead, and figure out what I could do in the next two weeks to make a difference. Its going to be a long weekend, with graduation, and 2 receptions. And major relief that it is over. Sadness as well, that it is over as well. My baby graduates from high school. A whole new life ahead, for all of us. He will be starting a new life, probably in a new home, and probably even a new job. We will have the same home and same job(s), but with something different. Quietness. No one at home but the two of us. We have had 5 kids over the last 33 years, and the last one will be flying the coop in just a few short weeks. The end of an era. I hope I adjust well. In many ways, I'm not looking forward to it. Ethan and I are close. We talk. We share our days. We help each other. No having him here will be different. But, I have to let go sometime. Now is the time.
