I thought all was fine and literally within seconds of him closing the door I had a cry fest! Now I'm crying thinking about it. ;-) We are soooo fortunate because he moved only one mile away. Soon after, my 2nd born, Ethan graduated high school and moved in with Michael. It's hard to believe how fast they grow, isn't it? It sounds like you have a special relationship to with your son. His apartment may be small, but it looks so nice and clean. I'm sure you can put your spin on it and it will look like a million bucks!<br /><br />NancyNancy's Daily Dishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10644639469128423132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4293397190628506592.post-86971248770621077732011-09-14T23:25:17.573-04:002011-09-14T23:25:17.573-04:00Great space for him, Kathy!
