Eu,
I'm glad you called today to give me, well, good news [to me].  And as much as these very very big plans you've made are being delayed. I believe, and truly I do, that it happened for a reason.  Whether it be more family time, more time to save money, or maybe even more time to spend with lil ol' me.  So even though you're still not 100% happy with your decision, know that I 100% am! Big things are still waiting for you,  you're well on your way.  But a detour, a raise, or just a little more time won't hurt. Right? I still think you're a wonderful grown up. ;)
