Brighton has a new Star

Yesterday my youngest daughter left home for uni in Brighton... Its wonderful, she worked hard for her A Levels and is growing up beautifully. She is about to study Psychology and Criminology. However I feel so lost without her here, I miss her terribly! Brighton is only about 56 miles away, its a great town by the sea so I can easily go visit, but I still feel its such a big thing. I dont quite have an empty nest yet as I do have another lovely daughter here at home (I also have a son who moved out a couple of years ago) but I still feel really sad. So much goes through my mind from worrying about her and how she will cope not only with uni but with dealing with life as an independant young adult right through to feeling less and less needed and more and more old... Its hard to get to grips with the fact that I have done so much, raising 3 kids to adulthood and I still feel about 22 myself (mentally anway!) And some say I'm not too bad on the outside either, 3 months ago I was called a MILF by one of my sons friends, but thats another story!! However thats the way life goes, we have the kids and all too soon they are grown and gone.. So I guess I had better get on and get used to it... Still doesn't make it any easier, at the moment though - I miss her soooo much!!
