DJ left today for college. She's transferring to a university some hours from us to major in physics and astronomy. She does nothing by halves, does she? Except pack for college apparently: she insisted on packing light. Smart girl, that one.
I thought for certain Bulldog and I would both be bawling like babies. I cried after dropping both of DJ's brothers at college, but didn't shed a tear today and I think I know why: it's her time. She had to fight for her happiness and now that she is on her way, how could there be anything to cry about? Don't get me wrong-I ache. Her room is empty in the strangest way, as is my heart, at the moment. And yet, she's ready to fly, both figuratively and literally. Our girl wants to be an astronaut and I would be terribly surprised if she didn't achieve this, as well.
She's sleeping in another city tonight, far from home but I'm raising my glass to my best girl-spread those wings baby; don't look down and don't look back. Just fly.

You've given her quite a gift, I hope she always dose her best to appreciate it,
