The final hour before leaving home

I read this thread a few days before launching our D and then now I realized that last hour was a blink, as was the whole day, just as the 18 years before it now seem to be. Thanks for all the stories - I love the sun/planets and vince - it’s always so nice to hear from someone who has survived the path past college. I am now just a few days post launch and it’s just, well, weird. Sort of like not being able to tell someone pregnant with their first how much their lives were about to change or how they would lose control of their heart - launch too and the after days aren’t really describable, I can’t pinpoint how I feel but it’s a good weird, just as I think it will be from here on out.
