momma was right

as much as i hate to admit that, but my momma was right about a lot of things.  right now she is right about how hard it is to let your children transition from childhood to adulthood.   

colleen had a terrible, rotten, no good horrible day on tuesday and there was nothing i could do about it. 

let me rephrase that - i could have done the wrong thing and jumped in and made it all better for the moment but then she wouldn't have learned anything. 

i have to admit. i'm having a hard time with this. this letting go and letting her make her own decisions. but i have to let her succeed and fail and the only way to do that is to let her go.

big sigh
