At 530 am I will be taking my son to drop him off to head for Basic training. He didn't leave early on the 5th as we thought he may. His recruiter misinformed him.
Needless to say I have mixed emotions. I am excited for he is about to go embark on a new experience, one that is going to be good for him. But I am also scared for him. No communication for weeks, OMG! I know he will be just fine. I just gotta let him go. I gotta break free and not try and pick up the pieces, ya know. He is the only child. So that's my baby. That also means I'll be all alone. OMG! What the hell!! He'll be back though so it isn't as if it is forever. But I do hope it is the beginning of his own life.
So, if I may seem a little down in the dumps the next few days, I hope y'all understand.
