It’s been almost three months since I’ve seen my daughter. In January, I packed her up and drove her to NYC to start a new life and education at Columbia University. It feels like a dream but it’s real. I never thought I would miss my child this much but every now and again I feel the tears well up in my eyes and I want to cry. Don’t get me wrong, I’m super proud of her and it was me who encouraged her to go to NYC. I have to suck it up and let her live her life.

What led up to her going to Columbia University is quite a story. We never really planned this but preparation brought her to this point. I believe any parent can prepare their kids with the right tools. It doesn’t have to be an Ivy-league school but if you want your child to have the best education there are some steps you want to take.

This video is a summary of what led up to this major life-changing event. If you have questions email me at samantha@richsinglemomma.com.
