Well this is it! I leave in a few hours. I'm so excited to be going, and just so freaked out right now. I know he'll have changed, I've changed too being alone again. He'll be more mature, but still my baby, a man but still a kid. I just want to hold him and feel him in my arms so badly. We are closer than most mom's and son's, and we've never left each other without saying I Love You, even when we were mad at each other we knew that we still loved each other. I've watched the tone of his letters change, what's important him change, his voice has even changed to a much more mature cadence.
I'm leaving here at 8:30am my time, I'll get to SC at 5:30 their time. I'll see Steven at 8am on Thursday at Family Day and then graduation is Friday morning and I'll fly back leaving SC at 5pm and getting home at 8pm. Funny how the time difference makes it seem so short!
Thank you all for making this possible.
I'll post pics as soon as I get home.
