This is a photo of DH and myself, it was takin Aug of 2011. we have been empty nested for a year now, At first I thought it was the end of the world, and I cried and cried, and went thru depression, But after some time,I settled in and got used to it, ( we are actually not completely alone having an adult foster home) but it is a little different then having your kids live at home. I am so thankful my kids live close by, and they do come over once a week for family night. ( I have family night every Monday night I cook dinner and we play games and or do an activity) Now I'm just waiting for that day, when one of the kids tell me I'm going to be a grandparent!:) My yorkie babies have definately filled alot of that empty nested feeling, cause they are just like babies. :) I Journaled on the back of this Lo. the whole 12x12, so it is super long to type out, it just talks about how I was thankful for God giving me a son and daughter, and I talked about all our family memories as they grew up, from birthday parties, school, sports, our family vacations, camping, boating days, sand rail, potty training to learning how to drive, dating, and so much
more, Then I talked about how I felt when they found their mate and got married. my feelings were mixed, I was so happy they found love, and was ready to be on their own, but deep down I was so sad, and wanted so bad for them to just be little again, I had horrible anxiety and depression, But I hid it from my kids, the best I could,:) So Thankful I am doing so much better and I'm thankful for all I have, ( including my kids around..) and I'm living everyday with thanks....
