What is my Problem?

I have 2 in college right now and I know how you feel.

You're not alone, I cried too and the first week was hard. It dawned on me yesterday that I hadn't talked to her Saturday or Sunday (but we had texted each other). So I called her, she was busy doing homework. I texted her a good night last night and got one back. I know my daughter it they type that won't call me every day. I'll be happy for once a week.

I know she loves me, she's just like her mom and very independent. It will get easier. I found keeping myself busy helps. But I have to admit a couple of times I've come home and saw her car in the driveway and thought of Juli's home. Then say to myself dopey she's at school.

I know I am going to need all of you here on the DIS when my first goes off to college. It chokes me up already and she is only in 8th grade I can't imagine a day without her. When she sleeps over at a friends house I'm lost without her at home.

I think it is safe to say you will probably be worse than me . I really never thought I would be this sad when my daughter left for college, I knew it wasn't going to be easy but it sometimes feels like she is gone for good . My son is in the eighth grade too, and I will probably be just as bad with him if not worse. I don't want to even think about that it is rough enough right now.

I know EXACTLY how you feel. I dropped my oldest off for her first day of college on Saturday and I was a mess.

She has always been a very self-confident, independent girl, but she has called home every day so far, so I think she is a little homesick too. People keep telling me it gets easier, but so far, it has been hard on me.
