Willie Geist, host of Sunday TODAY, discusses the upcoming transition in family life as his daughter Lucie heads to college. Celebrating her recent graduation, Geist shares the bittersweet emotions of sending off their eldest while recalibrating family dynamics with his wife Christina and younger son George. He notes the challenges they face as they adapt to being a family of three most of the time. The family plans to respect Lucie's independence while staying connected through a tracking app, knowing they must ultimately trust her judgment as she embarks on this new chapter.
"We feel like we've done the best we can. She's a great kid, and so we're thrilled for her. But we're a family of four. Somebody's taken a tire off the car and you've got to figure out how to drive the car on three wheels, you know?"
"Look, I think it's one of those things where at a certain point you've got to give it up to God, you know? You've done what you can. And you're just there to catch them."
