Off to College My Son Goes!
My Son is Off to College Today!
I know I have been talking about this day for a while now here and there in comments and posts here at WA, but today is the day.
Taking my son off to college today. Today is the day he starts the rest of his life and leaves the nest. I am proud of him, but I know I will probably be in tears too at some point. Love the young man my son has become. Off to Flagstaff, Arizona we go.....where he will start his freshman year at Northern Arizona University as a Film student.
So, I will be off and on for the next couple days, will not be as active on WA. If it takes me a little longer to respond to people, you will know why......
Here is a picture of my super excited son getting ready for the big trip today.....
Sincerely,
Steph

Thanks Nathalie. I am especially proud of him, because I did not mention in the post, but my son has Aspergers Syndrome, so I am especially proud of him.
Indeed, you can definitely be proud of him. What an achievement!
I am happy for both of you. :)
Steph,
GOOD LUCK to both of you!!! He looks so happy and excited:) You will be fine but I'm sure you've packed the tissues as you will need them. Such an emotional time for both of you!

Hi Lynn:
I actually am doing well as far as the water works go. I am surprised with myself but I actually did not cry. I was too busy getting him the stuff he needed and purchasing items from Target and so much that he needed for his dorm room. I was mostly full of pride for him.
Thanks again Lynn for the support.

Thank you Jude. It was and still is an exciting time. Tomorrow morning will be his first day of classes. I called and spoke to him on the phone today and wished him luck tomorrow morning. He seemed a little nervous, but I know he will do well.
