A drop with brownies in the house! I'm in the zone.

This is due in part to my oldest kid being away from home on a school science trip and calling me in the middle of the night in tears because he could not sleep and was homesick. Of course, I scarcely slept after talking to him that night. Thankfully, he was doing much better yesterday when we spoke. That helpless feeling is so hard. No emotional eating though, in fact quite the opposite yesterday. If I can master emotional not-eating, life would be so much easier.

I am happy to report that the boy seems to be doing much better. Talked to him again last night and he sounded genuinely happy. Does my heart good to hear that!

So glad he is acclimating... and having fun!! My youngest is graduating from college in two days. For the past 7 years (my eldest child now being lumped into this) at the end of each semester... like clockwork, I have received those tearful phone calls at 2 am..."mom, I'm not going to make it. its too hard. I'm gonna fail everything. I can't do this!" Breaks your heart as a parent, all you want to do is comfort them... but be thankful they know they can call you to talk them off the ledge. A momma's work is never done. AND... congrats on the drop AND resisting the brownies!!! woohoo!
