I accompanied my oldest daughter Julia across the country this week, to start her freshman year at Northeastern University. It is a time of enormous excitement for her, and sadness for me.
I loved this piece by Michael Gerson in the Washington Post. It speaks to what I’ve been going through, and a lot of other dads (and moms) at this time of year.
I’ll have more to share on this in the weeks ahead…
