My daughter is 25 (we are really close) and from the many talks w/her, I had a sneaky suspicion that this was the decision you wanted deep in yr heart. What makes me really happy for you is that you have your Mom's understanding & backing you up on your decision.
I know you feel better that the decision is made & now you know the direction for the future. How exciting! I'm cheering for you
you seem like a very responsible, loving young woman.
I wish you all the best in this exciting new venture!
