High Tech High Competence

The Lovely Daughter may have navigated eight countries this past semester, and Chicago Son may have had a year of success at a high-tech job, but at the moment they are wandering around O'Hare unable to find one another and calling me, the boring and staid mom sitting at home and watching tv, apparently in the hope that my Glinda wand will reunite them.

Just an observation, that's all.

I just have to laugh at this visual. And be reminded that they really do still need their mother! I hope they find each other before you get there!

I have been in O'Hare many times and can just picture this. Kinda sweet that they call mom, so she can help just by being mom.

Gannet, I'm jealous that they have you to call when they're lost.

LOL. Typical, I'd say! Mom to the rescue!! It reminds me of when my son calls me up while he is 300 miles away, and sadly says, "Mom, I'm sick." And what can I do?
