“Being a mom in my empty nest, I can’t believe…….”

For Mother’s Day Celebration how about we add comments to the above opening line?

It can be what was easy, what surprised you, what you miss, what you want back, what you are glad is over, what you still love, what challenges you with your adult children, or anything you feel like sharing.

You can add more than one time.
You can comment anonymously or not.

Maybe we will do this until May 12, the day after Mother’s Day.

Let’s just have fun with sharing whatever comes to mind.

I will start:
I can’t believe I told my daughter when she was 11 and wanted to shave her legs for the first time, “OK, but don’t talk on the phone and shave at the same time.”

I can’t believe, after 23 years, I still love watching my daughter…just watching her, looking at her.

Being a mom has been the best teacher of my life and that surprised me. For some, their best teacher has been other relationships, or illness, etc., but hands down, being her mom has taught me about my warts and my pearls.

Being a mom, I don’t miss car pooling, or sitting outside during the freezing days of soccer seasons.
