My Daughter Spreads Her Wings

As I watch Ellie and her friend, Erin, take a giant leap into the world, I am astonished at their adept management of life outside of their comfort zone. Could I have done this at 20? Not so sure. But these two are maneuvering through the UK with grace and style.

I know the world has changed and gotten smaller in the 35 years since I was their age. Nonetheless, it is a more complicated place as well. I am in awe of these two young women who are taking on this journey.

I must take pride as a mother that my beautiful daughter is spreading her wings. I am grateful for her spirit and strong constitution. Blessed be!
