After the kids
Its been a little more than month since my kids left. I thought I would be depressed…wander aimlessly around my house…pine away my weekends waiting for their calls. BUT NO! its actually this incredible delicious time!
Yes, I am waiting for their calls but…it too is this delicious feeling of not being needed. Not having the 3 o'clock imperative…the OMG I have to get the kids from school to practice, tutoring, lessons, blah blah blah! Now 3 is just the middle of the afternoon. Yum!
There is this smug feeling when I go to the grocery store and see the mom with kids. This isn't a judgement moment. It a self gloat moment.
I’ve been there, done that and survived.
Life on the other side is delish!
