It was "D - Day today!"" K left for Germany today. Germany is waiting to welcome her with a cool embrace of -2 degrees and about two foot of snow. Glad we got those snow boots... I wasn't sure how I would feel seeing my eldest off on the most epic adventure of her life thus far. I do now...and well.....
It was grand, I was so excited for her and happy, not worried or anxious or sad. Isn't that wonderful. I felt like "Mother Abbess"( without the habit) in the "Sound of Music" when she councils Maria to " Climb every mountain, ford every stream, follow every rainbow, till you find your dream." Sometimes it's really special to give your children wings, and watch them fly off into the horizon and to feel trust in that great old Universe. Yes, trust. After all "How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?"
