Dear Kid,
Once again it is Taking You Back To School Day, and once again I am conflicted.
Most of me is so proud of everything you’re doing in college. You are turning out to be an incredible person and a wonderful man.
A part of me is sad that you’re leaving. We never seem to have you home long enough. As I tweeted the other day, Fact: it is a wonderful thing when you genuinely like your kids. And we genuinely like you and enjoy having you around. We miss you when you’re gone (not so much the part where you torture your sister, but still).
An even smaller part of me just wants to grab another cup of coffee and hide under a blanket pretending today isn’t happening. Can’t say I’m particularly proud of that part of me, but it’s there.
Have a great semester, kiddo. We love you very much.
