<p>I am so so so sad to know she is leaving. It's the right choice for her. But I am so so sad. I'll be OK tomorrow. More details to follow. Thank you all so much for your support through this long story and I look forward to her getting to know the other cc kids at Princeton. That is if she will ever confess to being Alumother's D:)</p>
<p>Sending happy thoughts your way Alumother --- you know you gotta launch her sometime, and isn't it great that her "landing pad" will be Princeton?</p>
<p>Congratulations to Aludaughter and the rest of her family!! :D What a relief that the difficult decision is made, and now on to her wonderful future! (And I can empathize with the anticipated pain of sending her to the opposite coast, we'll need to get together to cry in our latte some evening, eh?)</p>
<p>And I think SBmom wins the bet on this one: she was only off by 29 min. and had the correct flip of the coin. ;)</p>
<p>I am so happy to hear it is Princeton. I am in your tear-stained shoes with a kid going way far away-- but I think it is so incredibly good for them to see a different regional culture. </p>
<p>We'll console ourselves thinking of all the fun they are having!!</p>
<p>Sincerest congrats, Alumother...and I'm there with you crying thru the final stages of "launch"...right now there is no comfort--but knowing it's Princeton, and that you were so supportive of your D should help "later"...Princeton is lucky to get your D!</p>
<p>Alumother, A very cool conclusion! Congratulations and don't worry about the distance. I can tell you from experience that they're still our kids, no matter how far away.</p>
<p>Congratulations Alumother - and Aludaughter (hey I like that). She's going to have the time of her life there!!! Just think of her dancing away on that beautiful campus!! And it will be so much fun for you to go to parents weekend!!!! Let the fun and excitement outweigh the sadness!

<p>CONGRATULATIONS ON ALUM'S AMAZING DAUGHTER'S <strong><em>PRINCETON</em></strong> CHOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>Oh, that is just the most FABULOUS news! What an exciting and thrilling four years this will be! I am soooooooo incredibly happy for you both that this one adventure is ending and a new one beginning soon. Don't worry, you will have my shoulder to cry on when she leaves....that is, if you can find a dry spot after my son leaves! <em>lol</em></p>
<p>mucho love to you both, ~berurah
