A is leaving for college tomorrow! She is all packed and cleaned up and organized. Now we have to see if all of the clothes fit in her room. We will get up early and head to NY for a 4PM move-in window. 

Tonight we had a family dinner in the back – lasagna, caesar salad and ice cream sandwiches – A's pick.

I will not dwell on her leaving or saying goodbye or being sad. Let's focus on what's ahead for her – lots of great things.
