The College Drop Off

The College Drop Off

🏫We got home from dropping off our first born at Cornell University last night.

🚂I have joined the hot mess express, and the tears just keep pouring down.

😔I cried most of July. I thought maybe my tears had dried up. I was very wrong.

😭I don’t think I have ever cried as much as I did last night trying to go to sleep for the first time at home with Max off at college.

🆗I keep telling everyone that I will be ok when I know Max is ok.

🩷When I find out that he loves it there and that we made a good decision.

📲Join me live tonight at 9PM as I talk about how I’m training my brain not to spiral into worry, and what to focus on instead to feel more at peace.

Laughing, Loving, Learning,
