Moving Out

[my-thyme]

When Boy #1 joined the military and moved on, I thought "1 down, 2 to go!".

When I told Boy #2 to get out of my house (including telling hubby it was him or me), I was glad to see the back side of him - 3 times - regretted the way it happened, each time, but not that it happened.

Boy #3, the last, is moving out this weekend. He has been a joy since the day he was born, gave me very little trouble, ever.

I'm dying here, people. And I'm trying really hard not to let him see it, because I want him to move on, it's what they are supposed to do.

I dread the day my boys move out. One works, plays sports and drives so I barely see him and the other, well, he likes hanging out with me every now and again.

Definitely can relate our sonster has only temporarily moved out and my wife and i miss him every time he leaves. I know for us this is only a test run for the eventual big move out. By temporarily, i mean he is going to school in Salisbury, but it is tough for the wife and i every time he leaves and heads back to school, maybe a little tougher for her but i feel it in my heart too. Only have the one sonster, only child.

I have two, and they are both gone, also. It is very hard, but I guess it gets better over time; like every change in life. I still tear up/cry a little every time they leave after a visit.

You should go and blow your husband.
He would appreciate it.

As happy as my folks were for all 3 of us boys to leave, my dad would be thrilled and overjoyed if we all said we were moving back in again today.

You're right. It's the hardest job in the world, but it is what we raise them to do. In a couple of years I'll be right with you.
