    Ugh! I am.  I just got home from dropping my son off at the hotel.  I will see him swear in tomorrow morning.  I feel like my heart's been ripped out.  How are you all holding up?

      Tonight was our last night home together... We jokingly called the "Last Supper". I am falling apart every other moment it seems, and my husband is so happy and excited for our son. I am not looking forward to goodbye tomorrow.

        This is day 3 without my Son.  I am all right, but have to try to keep busy so I don't think of him every second.  My daughter went into his room the day he left and made his bed and straightened it up, but I made her close the door.  I haven't gone in his room since he left.  Even the thought of looking in his room and him not being there brings me to sobbing tears.
