I'm doing better at letting Ian go now...
Category Everything Else
Last time Ian took off from home for his DisneyWorld internship, I was a mess... Once he got there and I got used to the fact that he was going to be OK (probably), I was able to relax a bit.
Yesterday he took off for Walden, New York. That's where his girlfriend lives, and he's going to spend the summer out there. He's living in an "apartment" that's part of the funeral parlor that her father owns and runs. And with any luck, he'll find a job there too.
In Walden... not necessarily the funeral parlor...
And how did we handle it this time? Just dropped him off at the airport, wished him well, and then went shopping for groceries... :)

I tell them, 'I can't miss you if you are still here'

My eldest (then only 13) went to Tadoussac, Quebec with a friend and her family on a whale watching excursion last year. I'm so glad she didn't tell me about the sharks in the bay until she got home.
What I don't know won't ...y'know. :-
