Day 2 & 3: The Past and the Present


But let’s start with the present – Accepted Student’s Day at my student’s college of choice.  Being the parent of one daughter already in college and the second nearly on her way has provided a perspective that I didn’t have three years ago.  I feel like I’m an old pro at dealing with sending a child off to college.  Thank goodness for that because I was a wreck the first time around. This time though I’m smooth sailing…
 

On Saturday we had the great pleasure of accompanying our daughter at her accepted student’s day.  It gave us another look at the physical surroundings of her university and a greater understanding of the program she has been admitted to.  Such a proud day to be her mom!

And the past – Holy Cross Cathedral & Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.  Two architectural gems that are a must see in Boston.  I could do an entire post on the Gardner Museum (an may just do that sometime) but for now take a gander at this amazing and beautiful place.

So we have now completed day three of our mother-daughter bonding extravaganza and I’m a bit beat but loving every minute.  T-minus four months until she spreads her wings and heads off to college.
