My daughter has left home for college. As soon as she found out that she could start summer courses, she went. Didn’t bother to wait for the traditional fall beginnings with the rest of the freshmen. She had her reasons for wanting a jump start and was rebelling against parental authority. It’s hard when someone is legally an adult but still living in their childhood home. I know it was for me when I was her age. But, still.
Now, the house is quiet, dark and empty and feels too large.
What now?
