The Next Phase....

Change is good...at least that is what I have heard. It has been a long week and I am now completely in a New Phase in my life. I must apologize to all for the way I have went on and on about how hard it is on me for Jesse to leave for college. A week has passed and time is a wonderful healer. Each day is easier and more 'normal'. Mason and I are settling in to our routine of just the two of us. Jesse is starting to adjust to college life and liking it more each day. Knowing that she is happy is all it takes for me to get over the sadness of her not being around here everyday. I went to visit her on Wednesday of last week and we went out to eat. It was pouring down the rain. But we shopped at Target and ate at Cracker Barrel and then went to the dorm. There were people in her room 'hanging out' so I didn't stay long. She was enjoying chatting and laughing. I felt more at ease for the first time at that point.
She came home on Friday after classes and stopped by the house for about an hour and then was off hanging out with friends here in town. Saturday we were able to sit and talk a bit while she printed off notes off the class website. Then she was off again to UCA by 3pm on Saturday. She tells me that her favorite classes are English and Philosophy. (makes sense since she is going into Law). Anyway, I looked forward to keeping you up to date on how she is doing and what is going on here at the house with Mason, Kenny, and Me.
For now, there is a bit of normalcy in the Coleman home.
