This Motivational Monday I'm getting personal, and I'm calling it a selfish one, but stay with me because it's a Journey of JOY. This past weekend I dropped my baby girl off at college and on the very same trip I turned around and picked my son up after he finished his 1st full year of being a grown up. Two kids, two completely different chapters, one stretch of highway.
And the big question that everybody keeps asking me: ARE YOU GOING TO BE SAD DROPPING HER OFF? My honest answer? I'm not sad at all. I'm truly, truly grateful. This is a joyful time and I look forward to the journey ahead.
In this one I take you along for the whole ride. I talk about watching my daughter step into a diverse new world full of people and experiences she's never lived around before. I talk about my son, the one who graduated in May, worked full time while in school, signed his own first year of rent, and is now making the smart move to come home, save his money, and start his master's. And I get real about watching him become the big brother who gives his little sister the truths about this next season, the kind of mentor I never had in front of me when it was my turn.
