Watching Maddon feels like looking at the world through a sheet of glass, everything is beautiful, but slightly distorted by emotion. I know this is exactly what we raised him to do: to be independent, to chase big dreams, and to leave his mark on the world. As his mom, I’m bursting with pride and excitement for the incredible future waiting for him. But that pride is tangled up with a deep, quiet sadness. It's an emotional time because this final year at home is vanishing too quickly, and I’m terrified of the silence that will soon replace his constant presence. I know he’s ready to go, but I’m not sure I’m ready to let go.
