['My kids left for college last summer. I got teary when they got in the car to leave. I was thinking about how quick their childhood had gone by.', 'I have those kinds of feelings as well. I think memories are a good thing though', 'It was rough for me because I have so many memories of them growing up. Now I miss them so much!']
I can understand that for sure, just remember the good ones
Last summer my kids left for college. I got so emotional thinking about how short the time was since they were born. I didn't want to let go of them and was bawling.
