Location: In a happy place | I'm sorry Mom. Try to find comfort in that this is what we are here for....to raise them so that may go out and make a wonderful life for themselves and have their own fun doing it. It is so obvious you have done a good job. Try to focus on how happy she is. |

Location: BFE, Idaho | I feel for you my only baby is graduating in May, but basically gone already, finishing H.S., full time job in the next town over, she stays in that town most nights with a friend as the drive home late is long and not a safe highway. (H.S. is halfway between work and home)
Only two weeks of alone and I am actually doing OK. Gonna have a great lawn/garden and lots of time to ride if it ever gets nice. |

I love what you said here. My daughter is close and son is still at home while going to jr college but it is so much fun watching them turn into the adults you hoped they would become. Makes you feel very proud!!! |

Location: Southwest Minnesota | On one hand, I totally feel your pain, I am almost at this point in my life too. On the other hand, I see this post and can't help but think what a great job you must have done raising your daughter to be a young woman who is brave, adventerous, and willing to take some chances in life. Good for her and hugs to you!
Here's to strong women, may we know them, may we be them, may we raise them.

| I love the Smoky Valley/Round Mountain area. The people I have met are very nice and welcoming. It is for the most part miners and cowboys. We spend a couple weekends over there for their saddle series and have made some really great friends.
I spoke to Suesan the other day. She said they do not have a schedule yet but Nancy, the other secretary gal, was back from vacation and they are going to get a schedule for races in the valley.
I know it hurts now but she really is going to a great community!
ETA How far away is she going to be from you? HUGS
