Departing the Nest

So I am sitting here trying to book a flight to Las Vegas for Jordan and I find myself somewhat overwhelmed with mixed emotions!  About a month ago she and I talked about her not losing sight of her goals and what she wanted out of life which brought us to this point with the cruise lines.  I wasn't sure that this would even become a reality for her.  Boy was I wrong!

I am so happy and excited for her but yet scared and anxious all at the same time.  I want the very best for my children.  I want them to experience life at its fullest and go wherever their heart takes them.  I want to see them move out (I prefer across town however..lol) and succeed but yet part of me wants to keep them under my wing forever!  I know that is impossible! 

Now I find myself at the treshhold of a new phase in my life so I will embrace this new journey(get in, sit down and shutup) and enjoy the ride!
