Today had to be one of my hardest days up to this point. At noon Mike packed up his clothes and left for Fort MacMurray. I know that the whole point of my career as a mother is to get my children to become successful adults who can stand on their own 2 feet, but watching them walk out the door is down right painful. Mike will be staying in a camp in Fort Mac. not too far from Shawn and he has a cell so I can talk to him every night. He is off and running towards his new career as a Boilermaker- rigger. I know he loves it but I barely kept back the tears until he left the driveway. I guess I need to realize this means success in my job. Well one down and 2 more to go, I glad thats another 8 years off.
