Her Last Semester

It feels like home, this campus to her. 

She moved in. 

She had concerts. (There are a lot of these posts... someday I'll do one post and have all of them in there) 

She studied and made the Dean's List every semester 

She overcame. 

She went on a journey

She discovered faith in a whole new way. 

She is growing up and has changed so much. She certainly isn't the same person who entered Holy Cross as a Freshman. 

And today we helped her move in for the very last time. 

It felt right, and good. But sad at the same time. 

I love this place. This place 'held' my daughter for four years. 

I have so much I could say about these years, about this college. But for now... what happended today. 

8:00 AM We went to Mass in our town

9:30 AM We left for Massachusetts. 

10:40 AM We arrived, unloaded the car, and helped her set up a bit. (Although by now, she is quite capable of doing all of that on her own -- and would rather do most of it on her own after we leave and send us a "move in" video later. 

11:30 AM Antique store that I love so much

12:15 PM Lunch at our favorite Italian place

1:30 PM We left for home (stopping at two antique places on the way home) 

3:30 PM Home just in time for a 9 inch snowstorm coming! 

 













I am so grateful that she is "all tucked in" for a snowy night in her adorable dorm room, ready to start classes for her very last semester. So happy she's home.
