Small Talk in the Lunch Line
“So is this your baby off to school in the fall”
Yes…my youngest
“Mine too…isn’t it so exciting for them”
Yes…I am so excited for her
“Oh is your baby a girl? I have two boys.”
My oldest is a boy
“I would think letting go of a daughter would be harder”
Letting go…of parts of your own heart…
Boy, Girl, not sure that matters…your heart is your heart.

So much truth…my baby boy is long grown and flown and letting go at every stage remains hard. I love this captured dialogue to set up that feeling.
