Hi Lovelies!
Things are changing here. Son #1 is grown and is moving to Sydney (the biggest city in Australia, 3 hours away by plane). This is one of my favourite pictures of him, taken 10 years ago.
I’ve been anticipating this all through the planning.
I know it’s a wonderful thing to have raised him to be independant.
I know I can visit him easily and even cheaply. I know I will.
I know he will dance and do wonderful things.
I feel like it was nice of him to let me parent him a last little bit in the past months, as he asked for guidance with moving and flying and packing and things.
I have another son who is still living at home, so I’m not completely in an empty nest. And of course I have cats and a lovely husband.
There’s a part of me that’s kind of light.
But a piece of my heart is flying tomorrow to a whole other city to live. So for now:
Aaaaaa-arooo-ooooooooooooOO…. (imagine the sound of a mother wolf howling)
*choke, gasp, inhale*
Love Meg x o
Oi! You got my mama wolf howling too! What a cutie he is. I can’t imagine my little guy one day flying the coop but I guess that’s what our job as mamas is! But still, must be so emotional. Good job, mama xo!
Thanks for coming by, Kathy!
After all those years of being so needed, it is a big change!
Update: he’s been there almost a week and is finding his feet really well.
