Bon Voyage
Young love is so sweet and beautiful. But it can be heartbreaking at times. I have been watching my son mope around the house because his girlfriend is going away to visited her step sister for two weeks. They had a rough week; his girlfriend of two years had minor surgery two days ago. You know your kids are growing up when you see them express their feelings of helplessness.
You feel for them because there is nothing you can do to make them feel better. He expressed to me how he is going to miss seeing her in school and on the week ends for two weeks. He sat down on the couch the other day, and leaned his head against me after school yesterday instead of working out and said “It’s going to suck,” he said. I just rubbed his head and said “I’m sorry.”
I think this time alone will make him appreciate her more. That way he will treat her like fine china and he will recognize the delicate flower she really is.
I never thought it was possible for me his mother to love his girlfriend as much as I do. It makes me envy of other mothers who have a daughter. I am going to miss this sweet child.
Her beauty and gentle nature is seldom seen in young girls today. I hope my son realize that she is a gift from heaven and to hold her tight. I pray the angels in heaven watch over her while she is away.
So tonight I’m making her favorite meal, she’s been through a lot this week and what the heck I’m going to miss her too!
