Yes Indah, it can be hard to listen…especially with older kids, I ‘very learned to be ready to listen when they are ready to talk.

Like you, I sort of had to figure it out for myself through trial and error when my sons left home, but especially for those who may just be beginning the journey of having their children leave home for the first time, I think this is very helpful information. ~Paula R:-) #BlogShareLearn

I remember when I was in the thick of it I finally realized what the feeling reminded me of…a broken heart. I remember feeling the same thing when my college boyfriend (now my husband) and I broke up for a season. I can say that time does bring healing.

Her relationship is great but I am mindful to give her space. In that though, I have been going through a grieving process which I can only identify as the empty nest syndrome. My son is 17 and has his last year of school next year and I do find myself wistfully wondering what will happen when he is gone too. Such good points to consider in this post. Thank you xx
