You've got my prayer. But you knew you had to let them. I am sure they will call when they arrive. Breathe. It will be ok.

Oops... should have said that they boys made it fine! Whew! Wish I could quit being in a panic mode over my children all of the time... I just realize how precious they are. The teenagers hate the extra hugs and keep saying "Aw mom cut it out" but I NEVER will.

They say cut it out but I am sure they understand why.my 16 year old just got his permit and I freak every time he goes out to drive.You just have to know they will do their best and all will be O.K.It may take awhile but you have to let them live their lives.

I was a nervous wreck everytime one of my kids got in a car after my daughter died. It took mr awile and alot of lip biting before I feel halfway at ease. My youngest daughter is 38 and I know the higway she drives everyday and what time going to work. If there's an accident, I'm on the cell phone to her finding out if she's okay. At least she understands my concern now and accepts it. Even though we don't all live together we all have cell phones. That way I don't panic as much.

Hey lady I'm their to eveytime my 15yo son and my 27 yo daughter are not in around me I panic.My daughter lives 2 doors away from me and yes we are very close but today she left to do some banking and errands and I had to call her in the middle of her errands to make sure she was ok. I have to talk to her every night to make sure she is snug in the house with the baby before I can go to sleep and right now my son is on a sleep over in the apartment above me and I can't sleep because he is not safe in his own bed. Dumb isn't it. I feel really crazy

Thought my 17 year old was going to be out all night - he called and said he was. Woke up this morning and found him in his bed. I asked him what he was doing home and his response was "Mom I know it makes you feel better and making you feel better helps me" -
So - I guess he will sleep all day... funny how they still look little to you when they are sleeping even though they are young adults now.

i have 3 children 9 13 and 14 and worrie about them every time they walk out the door no matter where they go or who they are with even when they get on the school bus i know thats to much but we are all our childrens mothers and fathers and we love our children so we do worrie about them
