I remember that feeling of release so well Skye, though today I leave our youngest behind in Sydney to begin uni, and I am dreading the silence of empty nesting. Enjoy those moments of abundant noise and energy, and the stillnesses too. My Mum, who would have been 80 today, used to say our children are only on loan. So true. Much love xx
Colleen, I am already feeling the empty nest and it is years away. I have to say a few hours after I wrote this I was feeling anxious and spare without anyone around - the thrill of splice sometimes wears quickly.
