Empty Nesters?

Posted by Glydin on January 31, 2006, at 8:29:48

I would post this on Parenting but it's a little dead and echoey over there.

I seek words of wisdom and coping from those who have make it through the process.

I thought putting on the school bus at 5 years old was hard. I thought taking and leaving her at college was hard. I thought her moving back home from college was hard. Now, she fully grown and striking out on her own and this too is hard and difficult and bittersweet. It feels like the end of the journey. A journey that has been good and difficult and filled with laughter and tears. Our best work. She's my only child.

I know I'm blessed. I know this is a good transition. But, good transitions can be very difficult nonetheless.

Advice, encouragement, tissues, prehaps a hug?
