Mostly, I am thrilled that she has asked me to be with her on this day! Who knows how many times this will happen in the future once she is comfortable and spreads her wings. All I know is that her simple little request for me to come to Auburn to be with her today has given me more joy than I can express! I never knew how much small gestures towards mom and dad meant until I became a parent of a teen myself. A hug, and time spent together is priceless to me!

No phone call from Kate either so, since it is almost 10am, I am taking that as a good sign! I really, really wish I could be at Auburn for bid day, but alas, geographically I am located too far from Alabama to return for bid day. Her father and I were there last weekend helping her move in and I'd give my left kidney to be back there today. She was very understanding about the situation, but I hate that I am going to miss it. WarEagle07, you have to take really, really good notes and when you update the board with your daughter's sorority, you have to give me all of the detail of what went on in Auburn today!
