We had lunch today

You have been in college for several weeks now and you asked me to take you out for lunch.

We ate at your favorite mexican restaurant, and we went to the grocery store to get some snacks and drinks for your dorm room.

We talked about many things, how to talk with your mom, handling your brothers half-decision to move into your room, now that you are gone, living with a roommate and coping with the pressures of school and life.

I am proud of your efforts to make it this far and can see you are thinking about your next steps in your career
