college moving # 14

As I was laying on a mattress in the floor of Drew's bare apartment last night I got to thinking about how many moves I had helped my children with over the last six years of their college life. I had been with Drew to see his final projects and was overwelmed at what he has ahead of him for four more years. He said he is excited about it and knows he can do it. I'm so glad he has that confidence. I just try to not let him know how worried I am about having the money he needs to do it. 10 straight years of college will do a mamma in. I started counting the number of times I helped Cally, she moved 8 time in 5 years.
1. to UCA
2.home from UCA

4.From Eagles Nest to The Greens
5.From the Greens to Stivers
6.From Stivers to home

2.From Bossier
3.To Bossier

So Drew will have 8 more moves. For a grand total of 22 moves in 10 years time. Now that I'm home and getting ready to get into my own bed, it doesn't seem so bad. The college years are a time of growing unlike any other in their lives. I'm just glad I'm here to help.
