I have tried to write about Kaity going off to college. I actually wrote it, erased it, wrote again and erased again. I've decided NOT to write about her leaving. Why? It was very hard and sad. I cried so much that airline security was even concerned! The poor metal detector guy was more scared of me than a suicide bomber. I cried for days and I didn't sleep for at least a week. I don't like to think about those days so I've decided to write about her, not her leaving.
My girl is happy so therefore I'm happy. She and I spent all weekend decorating her dorm room. I was NOT going to leave my girl unhappy and I knew having a pretty room with tons of curtains, rugs and warmth would make her happy. Check out how cute her side of the room is!
I think she's found her "place" at SCAD. I left her (and $1,000 that I spent on decor) in Savannah on a Sunday and by Thursday she had gages in her ears. Thank GOD, she came to her senses and took those out! About 2 weeks later, she replaced the gages with a tattoo. She loves!
She has made so many friendships in such a short time. One of her roommates, Allison, has become a great friend and I LOVE this girl! I'm thrilled for them both! She's found Tybee Island and has been there for SUNRISE a few times and kicked out some gorgeous photos. Alex went up this past weekend and again her photos are amazing. She's getting better by the minute and hasn't even taken a photo class yet. I can't wait for her to get into her major. She is going places, my girl. I can't wait to see where her talent and beautiful soul take her!
Speaking of going places...I'm flying her home this weekend to be my second camera at a wedding on Saturday. Do I need her for the wedding...probably not, but what a great excuse to see my girl! I'm so excited!
