I both dread and look forward to the day my girls fly the nest, also.<br /><br />Just a note, I live in beautiful western New Jersey (really, there is a beautiful part of New Jersey...with farms and cows and stuff). If she is in that area, lucky girl. If, on the other hand, she is working in the urban, northern area of the state and needs a "country" break, I would be happy to show her the area. And since our family doesn't actually own any farm animals, she wouldn't be asked to muck out a barn.<br /><br />All in all, best wishes for your daughter and prayers for a wonderful first position.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5526768924178592295.post-46278496402015805722015-11-05T06:50:18.231-08:002015-11-05T06:50:18.231-08:00Congratulations!

The older one was there for 2 years, the younger for 21/2 years because the family offered to pay for her college fees to receive her Associate degree if she would stay with them longer. Sweet deal! She went to college while the 2 children went to school. If one of the children was sick and needed to stay home my daughter missed school. It all worked out and both daughters came home with an education not gained from sitting in a classroom but from living in a new, exciting environment. Best of luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
