Congrats to your son. Big step for him, and his parents, too.

Now you will feel your heart hesitate every time the phone rings when he is out, and lay awake at night waiting to hear the car pull in the driveway, and feel tremendous fear and sadness to learn you can no longer protect him forever, and hopefully find tremendous pride and relief in seeing your kid successfully learn to handle adult responsibility. Big step, indeed.
