When I pick her up at the airport (just a few miles from home) I will just tell her I have “sad news”. We have had a long-standing family rule (since I was little) - no bad news while any of us are traveling unless it involves a parent in dire health. She’ll understand why I didn’t say anything, but it will be shocking and extremely sad. She’s had her own stress the last 10 days as her lease is nearly up and she’s been working on securing a new place before her trip as school starts 5 days after she gets back. Just so much going on.
