During the pandemic we had to move to another city for my husband's work. The kids took it hard but the teen took it the hardest. He misses his friends so much.

One day I told him. If you can find somewhere to stay I will pay for a train ticket for you to go visit your friends. 

Yesterday it became a reality as I watched my "baby" board the train for his first solo trip as I kept my promise to let him go see his friends.

I won't lie. I was scared and nervous but the mom he is staying with has been sending me text updates and pictures.

He is having an amazing time and this mommy has gone from nervous to happy for her son.
