My stepson will be going off to college in England next year (because he has additional needs and there's no suitable provision in Scotland - but that's another story). We would quite like him to stay at home where we know he'll be well cared for, but on the other hand he needs his independence and, like you say, new challenges!Nick Wilfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03841776353790635132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521754250583623909.post-63979945613041799432012-10-25T09:47:33.652+01:002012-10-25T09:47:33.652+01:00I like that description, Annalisa - 'excited s...I like that description, Annalisa - 'excited sadness.'

We know that as one chapter in the life of a loved one ends, a new adventure begins. For them and for us. <br /> <br />Your articulation rings a note in my heart. I await that sad, happy, reflective day when my son moves on and knows his own independence. <br /><br />Thank you for such a thoughtful posting.<br /><br />In kindness,<br /><br />Garyklahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521754250583623909.post-2888838873054979842012-10-24T21:24:11.328+01:002012-10-24T21:24:11.328+01:00Congratulations, Kyra, on your new release!Congratulations, Kyra, on your new release!Sherry Ellishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07844837212122243321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521754250583623909.post-4790220278611020982012-10-24T19:16:19.811+01:002012-10-24T19:16:19.811+01:00I've got a few years to go yet, but I can cert...I've got a few years to go yet, but I can certainly feel the excited sadness of this post.Annalisa Crawfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14943610814274794998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521754250583623909.post-66970320858144262372012-10-24T16:10:07.288+01:002012-10-24T16:10:07.288+01:00There comes a point where they all leave home and ...There comes a point where they all leave home and begin to make their own way in life.
