Lettin the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin it back in.

Most of the stuff people worry about ain't gonna happen anyway.

Awww, that's too cute! He'll be fine, and I know you know that, but he will be, and he'll call if he needs you, or just wants to talk to you. Hey... my cousin goes to trent... she's a cutie.... (if he's single )

What a cute story! And I love your son's sense of humor. I'll bet it brought tears to your eyes though. And I bet you'll keep that can of paint for a good long time too.

I have a cute cousin in Peterborough too. She is in Trent though. It must be really tough to let them go, but you know that he will be fine.
