Just finished watching my 3 kids play at the beach for the last time. How did you parents do it?

I have 3 incredible kids, a 21 year old daughter, a 20 year old daughter, and a 14 year old son. Today, my son is the last of our kids to get on a plane and move far away. We live in Texas, and he is moving to Connecticut to live with his older brother in law (my daughter's husband). <br><br>My daughter and her husband have a beautiful lake house that my son will basically have to himself. He starts a new school in a couple of days and will live with them for the rest of the school year. My son is an exceptional kid. He is an all state athlete in 2 sports and has a 4.0 GPA. His brother in law is an ex college football player, and he and my daughter are thrilled to have my son live with them. <br><br>The plan is that I will fly up there in a couple of months and watch him play some football. My wife has already agreed to let me go by myself, lol. <br><br>We moved here from Utah 7 years ago. I commuted home every weekend for 18 months so I could still coach my kids. We finally moved to Texas so my wife could have a job again. Since moving here, my son has also had to adjust to a new school and friends, but still was an all state athlete in 2 sports and graduated with academic honors. When he was 11, we had a big scare when he was diagnosed with cancer, but thankfully he is now cancer free. <br><br>I am 66 and in good health, so I have no idea how long it will be until I see him again. He is a tough, resilient kid, but he was very emotional today as we said our goodbyes. <br><br>Just curious, parents, how did you do it?
