The kid just got into her car and drove off to ride a horse.

I mean, I knew she had her license, but I hadn't had to watch her drive away yet.

So, that was weird.

It gives me a vague replay of the sense of freedom that I got when she was finally potty trained, but there was no bittersweetness to losing the diapers at all.

I so totally get this.

My son is leaving for college at the end of this month. I am so very, very proud of him. And relieved that he's launched himself to this next step. And yet, I am panicked that I have not done enough, and bittersweet that he will never truly come home again.
