We rolled into Clinton, MS, to prepare for move in day. We had a couple of days to do the things we needed to do. Because we just drove one small car, we needed to buy several things there in the town. We spent our time getting her registered at the health clinic, paying her first semester bill, getting her parking decal, and other things to get her all set up.
This is her dorm.

It was so exciting to me to see her campus!
The School of Nursing
I really missed CC and my other 4 kids. My friends texted me some pictures of an outing they had with friends!
We kept our time light and fun, even though we both were saying each day, "It's going to be hard to say goodbye."
And finally the night before move in day came. We got in the car one last time, crammed to the ceiling (after we had unpacked her and I had ironed all her clothes and put them on hangers). We could not stop laughing at how ridiculous we had looked for an entire week, everywhere we went!
We curled up in bed one last time. She said, "Mommy, this is our last sleepover night." And then she hugged me. I'll never forget that.
