Since our third son has left for college, here are some discoveries I've made:
1. He took our entire supply of kitchen garbage bags. As if he's going to need a brand-new roll and we won't need any here at home.
2. He took the hair gel I use when I retwist his brother's hair every two weeks or so. Which of course I realized when I sat down to do his brother's hair.
3. I have no idea how to cook for only four people.
4. I no longer have a chauffeur for his younger siblings and random errands.
5. I'm not a scientist . . . but I don't think his prefrontal cortex developed much in just a matter of weeks. However, I was happy to find that a little time apart was good for us. He came home for the weekend and let me hug him (!), was pleasant and even asked if there was anything he could do to help.
