ohhhhhhhhhhhhh.it hurts...and my daughter had that same stiff upper lip this morning.............I would not mind going back to when there were some eggs still in the nest..........your post was right on this morning and tears are rolling down my cheek...."HAPPY" NEW YEAR MY FRIEND!
Bittersweet, huh? I'd say more bitter. This makes my cry! But... good luck to Drew and Jessalyn!
Raise independent, hard-working, successful children and they have the audacity to move out and live on their own!! Some reward for doing a great job as parents. Condolences.....I dread the day, and it's coming fast.
This made me cry. I hope time slows down for me. I don't do alone well. We'll come visit you & Dad more often now.
I feel ya. It is hard to let them spread their wings. Not looking forward to the empty nest thing.
That's it... we're moving back in! With four empty rooms we will fit perfect!
How did our little boys grow up so fast? Thank goodness for grandkids.
