You Think You Got It Right....

Today is MOC Men's Volleyball first match in the Carolina's Cup.

Much as we dreamed of this day, part of me wondered if it would ever happen.

In the Spring of last year, I my blipped thoughts of apprehension of putting my Boy on a Plane to Canada.

The destination changed, but in August of last year departure did in fact arrive. And I did break my heart.

I was fine as soon as I got out of the airport. I think half of my crying was relief, at getting him on the plane and on his way to his future.

We haven't seen him for 5 months now, but that's fine! He's doing grand without us, and even manages the laundry himself. We communicate by Skype, and I write letters to him. There's something nice about getting a letter in the post isn't there?

We've always supported the kids at all their matches, and we are heart broken that we can't be there so see him in his first match, and out of respect for that, I'm going to have a long lie tomorrow, and not drag myself out of my pit to watch Tooli playing hockey. (I mean, seriously - it's gonna be raining and really windy)!
