Leaving on a jet plane

I sent my 11-year old off to California today.  By herself.  On a plane.  For a 4-hour flight.  As Lola and I stood at the top of the gangway watching her march down to board the jet -- backpack and violin slung over her back -- we smiled when we saw that each of us had tears in our eyes.  My little girl...her big sister....off on an adventure, as usual, but without us -- her comrades in life so far.

Till today.
