My Big Girl goes to College


So, last weekend was the big weekend. You always think about the day your kid leaves for college, and you actually leave her there, and this was it.

Craig and I left her with her new freshmen teammates at the University of North Carolina in the soccer team locker room to sleep on air mattresses for two weeks, until the dorms open. Apparently, this is the tradition since the first freshman class that did this won 3 out of 4 national championships. Hey, I'm in full support of good luck and good juju.

I managed to keep it together until the car door closed. She had that same smile on her face that she did the first day I left her in her new kindergarten class in Mill Valley.

Bravery, courage, commitment.

She inspires me now, as I channel these same qualities to usher vivoGS to its higher level.
