Mom, Dad, where you at? I need a hug.
Colorado State University decided to do a lil’ something something extra for the class of 2016. The university asked parents to write letters to their kids, and then filmed the graduates reading the letters for the first time. Cue that swelling sensation you get before you cry:

They talked about their responsibilities as parents: “Dear Heidi, as a parent my role is to provide a launching pad and encourage you to reach for the sky.”

And how impressed they were with the person their child has become: “You have grown to be a lovely woman, who I am very proud to say is my daughter and friend.”

They also touched on their kids’ unique qualities: “Your first word was bye, as in goodbye. From day one we recognized that you had a distinct vision, a fierce independence, and a strong will.”
