Earlier this month, I packed up my daughter's house, where she lived for three years with her best friends from college, and drove a U-Haul over 700 miles to Chicago. We unloaded her furniture, unpacked boxes, set up her new space, and hugged goodbye. Then I headed to the airport for the long trip home without her.
