All summer, Beth has been organizing a promotion for her campus radio station: Move-In Mania. She put together a handout and got $350 in prizes. But when it came to volunteers, she didn’t get the turn out she hoped for. The promotion targeted Freshman Move-In Day, but upperclassmen should have been available. Of course, no one was in school mode yet.
This is what you have a mom for. College students don’t need a mother for the same things that 2-year-olds do. (Thank Goodness!) But we can be the go-to gal, when they’re in a bind. I brought coffee, picked up the pizza, and manned the booth, when everyone else was out. Certainly not heavy lifting, but I hope it helped. I try to strike a balance – not invasive, but not disinterested. The right mix for Beth is completely different from Eric. Being a mom is always a work in progress.
Here's a link to streaming audio from the station:
