Well today is a bummy day for me, my youngest is moving out. Ok, I call it a transfer - he's going to move in w/my mom. He told me he wanted a change and I understand that. Here was our conversation: Me: You know, moving in w/Grandma is just a transfer since she only lives 15 minutes away, right? Him: Well at least I am leaving the nest. Me: Well, you maybe leaving the nest, but you are only fluttering your wings. Him: Well mom, someday I will be an eagle and get my 7 ft wing span and I will fly! Me: LMAO!!! - you kill me lol!!
So yes, I am going to have an empty nest and I didn't expect it to bother me, but it is. I am happy that my boys are growing and becoming mature responsible young adults. I am excited for them, but damn, the adjustment is hard. My oldest moved out 3 yrs ago and I handled it ok. I think it was more because he was a social butterfly and so he wasn't home much anyways. My youngest, he was more homebound and maybe that's why it's harder for me. It's just going to be very weird.....
