Well, my daughter probably doesn’t NEED a lot of what she takes down with her. However, over the past two years in single rooms, she’s gotten used to having enough space to take everything she wants.

This is the child who takes the 6’ bookshelf from her bedroom at home, breaks it down, packs up all her books, and sets it back up in her dorm room every year. The bookshelf and books now spend their summers in her boyfriend’s off-campus apartment in Tuscaloosa.

We live less than 3 hours away, so she only has one season’s worth of clothes with her at a time. But it’s amazing how much more stuff seems to end up down in her dorm room throughout the year. We manage to fit it in 2 cars going down, but somehow it takes 3 cars to get it all back home again in the spring.
