empty nest


My youngest is going back to school tomorrow. We've had a wonderful time with him home but all good things must come to an end. I will miss him terribly. I'd love to keep him at my side every day. The rational part of me (and yes, it does exist) realizes that his job right now is to chase as many rainbows as he can, find a way to fulfill his dreams, and live as an individual while still maintaining his responsibilities as a member of this family. He needs to fly. I need to let him. But that doesn't keep me from selfishly wanting him to stay a little longer! Learn lots little chick, but never forget who the top hen in the henhouse is! Love ya'!
