Deb, How old are your kids? Grandkids? Are you "empty nest" now? If so, how was that for you at first? Wanda |

i saw your message about the link with some responses, but i didn't see the link ... oooooh, did i miss it??? my daughter is 28 & my son is 27 ... i have twin grandsons, who are 7 years old & another who is 5 ... beautiful, beautiful boys ... the twins were premature, delivered at 27 weeks ... they are our miracle boys ... they stayed in the hospital for the 1st 3 months of their lives & then both suffered shaken baby syndrome at the hands of their father ... they have had many, many challenges to overcome at such a young age ... truly miracles ... i did suffer empty nest syndrome ... to go from a house full of happiness & laughter to a quiet one ... our children were close in age & were very close & did everything together ... & when it came time to move on, they did it around the same time, so it really was difficult ... but they have done so well & we are very proud of them ... well, i think that's about all there is to tell ... |

Your children/grandchildren sound wonderful. Are the grandkids your daughters or sons? Or 2/1? <BG> A birth is a miracle in itself but to have multiple births is truly a miracle. How are the twins now? Any lingering problems that may not go away? Do they live close to you? The empty nest syndrome is something I have worried about for years and I am not even there yet. I quit working when we adopted our sons and have been home ever since. I am looking and keep talking about going back to school, changng careers before my kids leave home so I am "busy" with something. Mine to are close in age. Friends tell me I will look forward when they are gone but somehow I can't picture that one. I always hated it when school started and they were gone all day again. One reason I homeschooled them finally. I like time to myself sometimes like anyone, but not all day everyday. just some hours here and there. |

oh AngeinBama, please don't apologize ... i know how busy everyone is ... just not possible to be everywhere, all the time, but i do thank you & the rest of the girls, once again, for such warm welcomes ... so very nice ... & Angelbear ... my grandsons are our daughters ... & they are doing pretty well. they are in their age-appropriate grade (going into 2nd), albeit a little slower than their peers. they have received so much support & concern from the teachers & aides that work with them; it is truly heartwarming to see how all have fallen in love with them & so much want them to succeed ... & yes, i don't want to sound negative, but when our children left, it was so very difficult for me. people said the same thing to me that they said to you & maybe it was true for them, but it wasn't for me ... i'm sure you will survive, as i did, but you will be forever changed ... i guess that's life, huh?? just gotta keep a smile on your face!!! |

Deb: I'm glad to hear about your grandkids. I'm sure they'll catch up with their peers when they are ready. It helps having good teachers working with them that you can see really care and have their interest in mind. Forever changes without my kids is what I am afaid of. Having boys, they tend to be with the girls family more also when they get married. It will devastate me. I just need to continue to savor evry moment I have with them until then. Wanda |
