Moving Forward

It has been over a month now since we dropped our son off to college.  It is interesting to reflect and recognize that we have all developed a comfortable new routine.  We are busy with our jobs, and he is busy with college.  We communicate almost daily, primarily through a brief text conversation.  I still miss him, but because he is enjoying college and doing so well, I am able to celebrate this new stage of life we have entered.  He really likes several of his classes and he loves the college schedule.  He is working hard, but does not appear to be overwhelmed.  He has made several close friendships and has a group of friends he studies with.  He has found a local church that he likes, and he has joined a Bible study led by his RAs.  I have discovered that my new role in his life is to send cookies, encouraging notes, and updates on the news back home.  I loves my new parenting responisbilities!

The following link goes to the site where I have found several good recipes for cookies that mail well.
