My son cried last night about Toy Story and his sister leaving for college.

Yesterday my daughter was at her bio dad's house and texted my younger two asking if they wanted to see Toy Story 4 with her and her siblings on her dad's side. They agreed and she ended up taking all four kids. She decided to stay at her dad's house last night so she dropped her brothers off before heading out. I asked them how the movie was and my 14 year old lost it. Like most teen boys he is generally unemotional, at least in front of me so I was taken by surprise and tried to get him to calm down. When he finally calmed down he started talking about how he doesn't want his sister to leave and how watching Woody walk away made him realize that nothing will ever be the same from this point forward.It was sweet, sad, and a little funny. My 12 year old watched in confusion. We talked later that night about how things are going to be different but that's not always a bad thing. Their relationship will continue to evolve.I know he's been having a hard time with it. Him and his sister are buddies. It's not something I expected with them being almost 4 years apart in age and opposite genders but they love each other and love spending time together. We are taking a huge family trip (me, my husband, my boys, my ex husband, his wife, and their two kids) to go drop her off and vacation a little in her new city. She'll be in California and we are east coasters so we probably won't see her until Christmas break. I thought I was doing okay but seeing how hard my son is taking it send me back yesterday. I don't know how we will be able to leave her at school. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2XsUDQt
