The Reluctant Empty-Nester: April 2013
http://reluctantemptynester.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
The kids flew the nest! Monday, April 29, 2013. I just got back from taking my youngest daughter to the airport so she can go back to school after Spring Break. I wish the time hadn't gone by so quickly! Every time I see her, she seems more mature and almost. Life is all about change. Change is all about growth. Growth is all about reaching your potential. My youngest is well on her way to reaching her potential. I'm so proud of her :). Saturday, April 27, 2013. I just got back from my first camping trip...

The Reluctant Empty-Nester: September 2013
http://reluctantemptynester.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
The kids flew the nest! Tuesday, September 17, 2013. When my husband and I were younger, we had to make a difficult choice concerning where we were going to live and work. At the time we lived fairly close to our families and wanted to find a good job in the area but my husband's "dream" job took us several hundred miles away. The move was. Dang, I'm going to miss them! Painful but provided us an opportunity to grow closer together and discover a new area which we eventually grew to love. 5 Thou shalt no...

The Reluctant Empty-Nester: May 2013
http://reluctantemptynester.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
The kids flew the nest! Tuesday, May 28, 2013. One of those moments. This afternoon I had one of those "I'm old! Moments. I'm visiting my kids who live in Utah (which is where I went to college and then started my family) and my daughter and I went to the mall. As we drove into the parking lot, my mind went back to the time when that mall was built.around 1970 or 1973. I remembered it in all its newness.the first mall of the county! No wonder it looks worn out! Hey, that means I. Monday, May 27, 2013.

The Reluctant Empty-Nester: Friends
http://reluctantemptynester.blogspot.com/2013/10/friends.html
The kids flew the nest! Saturday, October 26, 2013. Now that my children are grown, I still learn from amazing friends who are a little farther along the path I'm embarking on. Being a few years ahead of me in age, they have the experience and wisdom that I lack. I look up to these women, admire them, and thoroughly enjoy their company. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Reluctant Empty-Nester: June 2013
http://reluctantemptynester.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
The kids flew the nest! Sunday, June 30, 2013. Once a mom, always a mom. I thought my days of sitting in an emergency room waiting with one of my children in need of stitches was over.that is, until this weekend when that's where I found myself with one of my married sons. He had gone shooting with another son and some friends and he tried a different rifle that had much more of a kick-back than the one he previously used. The result? A substantial laceration above his eye. Once a mom, always a mom.

The Reluctant Empty-Nester: Peace and Quiet
http://reluctantemptynester.blogspot.com/2013/10/peace-and-quiet.html
The kids flew the nest! Friday, October 11, 2013. Do you remember how often you wished for some peace and quiet while you were raising your children? Or how often you dreamed of a good night's sleep? I got my peace and quiet but the house is too quiet now. And even though I no longer have to get up in the night because of children waking up or stay up late, waiting for children to come home, sleep doesn't come easy. I wonder why it's so hard to appreciate what you have right now? View my complete profile.

The Reluctant Empty-Nester: Will they get along?
http://reluctantemptynester.blogspot.com/2013/10/will-they-get-along.html
The kids flew the nest! Saturday, October 5, 2013. Will they get along? Much as I enjoy a good relationship with my children, it makes me really. Happy when I see them going out of their way to be with each other. I worked for years refereeing fights and squabbles when they were little, teaching them to cooperate, all in the hopes that when they grew up, they'd actually like. October 5, 2013 at 11:57 PM.

The Reluctant Empty-Nester: Spider webs
http://reluctantemptynester.blogspot.com/2013/10/spider-webs.html
The kids flew the nest! Wednesday, October 16, 2013. I don't know why I have such a fascination with spider webs. I think they're beautiful, especially this time of year when the morning dew glistens on each strand and you can easily see the intricacies of the spider's work of art. How do they know how to do it? Of course, I don't like seeing them in the house but outside? I can appreciate them. :). Oh, I must seem weird! All the fir trees are covered with delicate webs. Ok, it's official.I'm weird :).
