So Far, So Good

A short FaceBook status of Offspring the First included the comment:

I love college.

Herself is so happy for Offspring the First.  While she is sure that Offspring the First will suffer the usual ups and downs of college life, she is very pleased that things seem to be starting off well.  We hope it continues.

Herself recalls her own college beginnings -- how monumental and difficult everything seemed -- and is relieved that Offspring the First has a much better foundation for success than Herself did.  Offspring the First is brimming with creativity and self-expression and a well-defined personal style; she understands herself and her abilities, her strengths and weaknesses.  She has, of late, also developed a cheery self-confidence.  She is witty, kind, outgoing. These characteristics, along with her ability to make friends easily (as well as the presence of one of her very best friends from high school), will lead her forward with confidence and optimism into the unknowns of college.

Godspeed, child.  Many adventures await you.  It is an exciting time.
