I am so happy for her opportunity. I know how sad it is for one to move far away. For me it is odd that I want my child to grow up and be independent, just not far away from home. The good part is .....wonderful trips out west with the best tour guide.:clap_1:
:clap_1: S3 is going to enjoy this life experience so much! I'm very proud of her!

Congratulations to Steeleing3. And Steele Mama, I can only imagine (my kids are still home but it's only a matter of a few years). I think that's why they call these moments "bittersweet" -- but the sweet far outweighs the bitter (and that's what we remind our achy breaky little hearts).
It is very hard to have a child move far away. My son moved to Las Vegas for a lifetime career opportunity. It is tough to be so far away but we talk every day even if it is for only a couple of minutes. I know what you are going through and it is tough but they need to be able to grow on their own. At this point we can only offer support and love.
I am sorry you are sad Mama!! But, you know she will come back to the place she loves so much, and the mama she loves. What a great opportunity for her to travel though. We are here for you.
