The Monday After College Drop-Off… 🎓
The car is unpacked. The dorm room is set up. The goodbye hugs are over.
And now it's Monday.
The house is a little quieter, the grocery bill might finally go down, and you're trying really hard not to text, "How's everything going?" for the fifth time.
You're incredibly proud of the person you've raised, excited for everything ahead of them… and maybe just a little emotional walking past their empty bedroom.
Here's to all the parents navigating this new chapter. You did your job. You raised them to fly.
Now, if they'll just remember to call once in a while. ❤️
