Anticipating Friday when my youngest gets home from the Grand Canyon. Cannot wait to hear her stories. Meanwhile, today I mailed off a very big check to The Oxbow School in Napa, where she will be moving next month.
That simple act made concrete for me that my "baby" is growing up and will be moving away very soon. But it was a pleasure to be able to have saved enough resources to support this opportunity for her, just like I did for her Grand Canyon trip.
She is going places and doing things at the age of 16 I certainly never had the opportunity to do. That is one definition of success, right? If your kids can somehow have a richer experience of life than yours.
I think we parents all strive for that.
