on her own?

My daughter seems to think that upon graduating high school she will be "on her own." Bahahahaha! Just a minute ago over breakfast she says we won't have anything to do with her "having breakfast" when she's away. Dad made reference to her meal plan and it being paid for. "Hello, need our help with a loan to pay for school don't you?" And I just read her blog where she is going on about being on her own. Yes, you will go and live in the dorm. Yes, you will be responsible to get yourself up, fed and to class on time. Yes, this will be huge. Yes, we will miss you and you will miss us. But "on your own" means you are moving out with all your stuff and financially not depending on us. Are your mixed emotions ready to take that on? My emotions are not ready to let you go quite yet. College: the transitional period that leads you to be "on your own." I do love you Sydney, just not ready for you to be quite on your own yet. There are still lessons to be learned and we will be beside you all the way...cheering you on. Because YES, we do want you to be on your own!
