Adult offspring

[acommondisaster]

I expect them to call me Mom all of my life, so they will always be my kids.

I don't give a flip if they don't like being called my kids - I'd give anything to be someone's kid again - I don't think I'll ever get over missing my mom and dad.

I call my kids my "kids" or "children", although they are neither. They are full-fledged adults. We need a new term that indicates this. Suggestions?

I call them "this ain't a Holiday Inn Express and get out of the fridge".

You mean the time will come when I can't call my son "mcmuffin" or "poopie"?

I refuse to subscribe to this theory

I promise you, this day will never come. Just ask my 13 y/o son. Better yet, just drop by his bus stop one morning when I am driving by and yelling, "GOODBYE HONEY BUNNY POOCHIE WOOCHIKINS, MOMMY LOVES YOU". If you are lucky, you may catch one of the kisses I blow his way.
