Out of a storm does come a valuable lesson...youngest son did not want to return to college until last possible minute such that he could eek out every extra second with his puppy love girlfriend. He had a very important meeting on campus today that he "absolutely could not miss". He chose a red-eye flight last night over flying out earlier in the day. Sure enough....flights delayed across the US due to storms. He now sits in Boston airport on his third standby to get back to school. Whiile I am sympathetic as a mom part of me wants to say "I told you so.".....Needless to say he will miss his big meeting. My guess is next time he'll opt for the "play it safe" flight. Or this girlfriend will be a thing of the past and I'll be flying there to give his a big hug. That first true love always hurts so much and rarely does it result in "the one".
