Empty Nest is Kinda Alright!

Sometimes I get the empty nest blues.  But they I remember how great my kids have turned out and I know my job was well done.  And the longer they are gone... the more you get use to it because it becomes the new normal.

It took me about 5 years to be at peace with the new way of things.  But now I feel like a teenager with money and parents that are always out of town.  I am enjoying this time in my life!  And having grandkids really help the empty nest!

So if you are experiencing the empty nest blues, just give it time, soon you will love the independance that the freedom you gave up years ago to be a mom.  Now you are still a mom, but you can alway be so many other things!
