<p>Four years ago my husband and I dropped our naive 18 year old son off at college. I felt so many emotions and I could tell that my son just wanted us to leave so that he could unpack and get acquianted with this roommate. After a run to the bookstore and Walmart for a few items, I stood in his dorm room and said “Oh just let me make your bed up” I think he was mortified but didn’t say anything and I think he understood why I needed to do that. After that I cried most of the way home (2 hour drive) </p>
<p>My daughter also went out of state for college. I was just as emotional on her first moving in day. I made her bed too!</p>
