Today I think is a very good podcast, Jeannie and my friend Margaret, Margaret's first time on the

0:06.1

podcast, are talking about sending their oldest kids to college and how dismantling that experience

0:14.7

was and how no one talks about that and how their emotions were so unexpected for them. So

0:22.7

I just texted Margaret to check on her because I saw her post of her daughter going to

0:27.4

freshman year college and she was like, I'm not doing good. And I was like, let's podcast about

0:32.4

it and talk about it. And Jeannie said the same thing. I'm not doing good and let's talk about it.

0:37.1

So that other people feeling the same way know that they're not alone. People talk about post

think may need the conversation. And email me if you have any suggestions for podcast ideas or

open and all ears. Yeah, so I guess enjoy this episode talking about sending your kids off to

1:46.0

college with Margaret and Jeannie.

2:16.0

Yeah. I got a brand new pair of roller skates. You got a brand new key. I think that we should

2:24.0

have a brand new pair of roller skates. You got a brand new key.

2:39.2

We don't get Holston in here with us anymore. No, I know. Holston was sad about that. I don't really like

2:44.4
