Yes, it is wonderful.

Today I ordered some books from her Amazon.com wish list,to be sent to her in France..........and also some clothes from Delia's, her favorite on-line shopping place...........and I sent her a Halloween card with 50 Euros...........

At times I miss her a lot, but this experience is doing her so much good.........

Exactly!This is the key as they become independent: appreciating their growth and new-found maturity, even as it seems to shrink our time and influence with them.

It's better to focus on the first, rather than the latter.

It may sound like a paradox, but that gives us a chance to grow too!
