Dropping your kids off at college is a bittersweet moment for most parents, and Faith Hill and Tim McGraw were no exception when they dropped their middle daughter, Maggie, off at college today (Sept. 22).
“It’s beautiful and it’s sad all at one time,” Tim once remarked about his children leaving the nest. “You know, you can’t wait for them to sort of see what they make of themselves and do with themselves when they get out from under your umbrella, but you’re also nervous and sad because you’re gonna miss ’em.”
But before they said goodbye to Maggie, Faith shared some memorable moments from the mother-daughter road trip on their way to the new school.
Thanks to social media, we were able to be a part of the trip as the adorable duo sang along to Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood” and made a few new friends along the way. But like most parents, tears were shed on the final day when mom and dad had to say goodbye to their little girl. Celebrities— they’re just like us.
Check out Faith and Maggie’s travels along the way to her new school. Good Luck Maggie!
