I enjoy going back and visiting my college and seeing how much it has changed, yet stayed the same. Like you, I would not go back to my 20's for anything.

One daughter was 'into' the whole process and the other was having a difficult time coming to terms with leaving home, and so looking at schools was fraught with emotion. Can't wait to hear how it all turns out, what a stressful time!<br />Molasses cookies are a family favorite here, too, and I love seeing how different each version looks.

It certainly isn't easy, but there is someplace for everybody.
