I will treasure the time that my daughter and I spent together this summer while she was home from college. She was away working at a Christian camp most of the summer, but the last few weeks I’ve enjoyed her company. We shopped, and tore through our movie list that we made at the beginning of the summer. She’s off to college again this weekend. I will miss her.
As the autumn comes, the trees change color, lose their leaves, and the weather gets cooler. As we gear up for another Fall season, it is the best time to take full responsibility of what happened in the previous seasons, both good and bad. We must remember that the crops that were harvested during the summer, produces the fruit that sustains us through the barren season.
You have a great attitude. I hope I can get there at some point, because right now I just feel an overwhelming sense of loss and sorrow over this empty nest thing. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. – Amy at http://www.momgoeson.wordpress.com
Keep your chin up. When you think of life as a season, it’s always changing, and the change is usually better!
I cherished every moment over the last month with my children. Both adults, they happened to be within reach for the first time in many years.
Becoming an adult is such a process. We are so blessed to see and be a part of our children’s growth.
