So, my final chick is flying the nest. How do I feel? Gutted, devastated...old? I have no idea how I feel to be honest. I feel numb. Maybe. Life is cruel. I know evolution has to progress but my babies are mine Mother Nature! And I need to keep them! I know I should be ecstatic. And I am! Really, I am. As an emotional person, this seems to be a bigger issue to me than to #1 daughter. She has bought a 3 bedroom house with her partner. And is getting on in life as I did when my mother didn't like it. I know! Fantastic! You can talk to me 'till I'm blue in the face. But the difference is, she's my baby! I'm so happy for them both and I really do wish them all the luck in the world. But. She's my daughter and I brought her up to be the person she is. So why is someone else taking over my role? I like to think it's because of the way I brought her up. She's a credit to me. (and he's not getting her!) In all honesty......#1 daughter & #1 son in law.....I wish you all the luck in the world!! And if I could do it all again, I wouldn't change a thing.
