I love my kids. I really miss them now that both boys are away at college. I must also confess that Abby and I have adjusted surprisingly well to the “empty nest”. With the kids at school, we have found more time for ourselves including taking a yoga class at the local Park and rec department. Additionally food shopping has become much easier and less expensive, there’s less laundry and less dishes, the house stays cleaner, and Abby is free to use her Stop and Shop gas points for HER car!
