Off To Uni : The Wednesday Blog Hop..

In a few weeks my 2nd son will leave home and go off to uni.

 

Does it get any easier when the 2nd one goes, I ask myself!?!

 

I was so upset when my first son went to uni 2 years ago, I even wrote a piece in the Nottingham Post.

 

Last Thursdays he got his exam results.

He did great.

3A’s in business chemistry and biology.

Also got offered a place at the uni he wanted on the same day. What a day.

 

Another one to soon fly the nest. I am just hoping I am not so upset I will be crying in the street again, like I did when my eldest went!?!

Bet I will though..

    I cannot believe your second son is in UNI! Wow. I think it would be weird for me. He looks great though. Cheers!

    I don't think it gets any easier! My second one doesn't go for a few more years though!

    Aww! I feel for you! I think I'm having much more difficulty with all of the "milestones" on the 2nd and 3rd times around! Congratulations to them on their accomplishments–and a hand to you for keeping it all together!

    You look young enough to be going off to college yourself, much less have a second son!

    He looks so grown up! I have a feeling he will do well at uni but I still wish him the best and hope the transition isn't too hard on either of you.

    I won't take the bet; my mom used to say that crying cleanses the soul. Congrats on the college years.
