Letting Go

I thought of a number of ideas for letting go, the theme Christine gave us for headers this week.





A picture on my refrigerator is of my oldest grandson whirling in a toddler's dance--I thought of how my daughter and son-in-law have let him go--then, and now--on his own to college.

The waiter at his graduation dinner asked if he was going to live at home or on campus. There was a lengthy pause as he pondered, then finally responded "I didn't know I had the option."

His university requires freshmen to live on campus, but I think his parents might have made that the only option anyway, as he needed the experience. They knew they had to let him go.
 
I need a visual that will fit into the header space, though, so I thought and thought about what I might let go.
 

So I thought about this:
Let it go.

 


and this is what you get.

Headbangers--a small group of online photo crazy friends who challenge weekly with a theme for their headers. You can find the others from their links in my sidebar.

Indeed, a high school grad should be able to live away from home!

So hard to let them go.

One of the joys of grandchildren: having an excuse to blow dandelion clocks again.
