My daughter was getting ready to go to school in another country, which is something she had wanted since she was a little girl.  To help her get prepared for this exciting adventure, meant me having to go to the bank to handle the currency exchange.  Once this was taken care of, it was just a waiting game, until it came time for her to leave.  We made the most of our time together, because she would not be coming home until the next major holiday.  Today, she is in the college, and is thriving and having the time of her life.
