I always kept in mind these words as it came time for my kids to leave the nest - They have to soil the nest in order to be able to leave. So I would remind myself that the stress and strains we all felt were part of the growing apart process. <br />So fun that you both have the same room number. I still remember the number of my freshman room (345), and that was 40+ years ago.

The best things in our lives often come as a result of a transition, and the unexpectedness of those good things, hiding in between the anxiety over the changes, is often wonderful!

Thinking about all the new things she is experiencing as you are also experiencing the newness in first grade. Amazing how you are both transitioning together. You both will be awesome -- knowing there will be good days, awesome days, and hard days too, but you both know how to reach deep inside and stay strong. Here's the a great year ahead in first grade and first year of college!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08895290340118654990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8240895607822097864.post-32808594264502634322014-08-12T16:56:32.029-05:002014-08-12T16:56:32.029-05:00I got goose bumps when I read the matching room nu...I got goose bumps when I read the matching room numbers.
