Calleigh left for Kansas this morning. I know she thinks she is tough, I know she thinks she is all grown-up, but putting her on an airplane and sending her several states away to a conference to be picked up by the guy that she has recently broken-up with is a very hard thing for a mom. I know the conference will be supervised by great Christian people, by I worry about her heart and I worry about her getting there safely. Today she is a great daughter and texts her worried mother often to keep her updated on her flights and arrivals. She does get to Kansas safely, she does get picked up, albeit hours after her arrival due to car problems, she does get to the conference safely, and he does end up acting like a jerk, and her heart does get hurt. But she is right--she is tough, and she is a grown-up and she handles it all and she has a great week, enjoys great friends and learns a lot which was the purpose of attending this conference in the first place. I won't hesitate to admit that she was right, everything was ok, and that I am proud of her!
