@the_mrs_crowder: I don't want to go backward. I'm so proud of the adults my kids have become. but two things can be true at the same time... you can be incredibly proud of the life they built and miss the ordinary moments. you never realize would become your favorite memories. If you're in this season too, you're not alone ❤️ which one hit home for you? #AdultKids #EmptyNest #Motherhood #MidlifeWomen #WomenOver40

My daughter and her two daughters just left after a 6 week staythis morning to go home to Texas. I’m in Canada. The entire morning has been cleaning up the beautiful chaos that they left. Its been full of tears and deep breaths. Every single thing you said resonates so deeply into my soul. But as you said, I have sadness now, but I’m so proud of the lives they have.

The loud house! All the debates, laughing, arguments, cheering while watching games, raging because you’re losing while playing with friends online, the knock knock knock on my bedroom door and whispering “hey mom can you talk?”, getting excited when the house got decorated for Christmas, etc, etc 🥺

I miss the midnight chats with my son. he'd come home from hanging out with friends or a date, I'd be in bed already but he would knock and i would open the door. he would sit at the foot of my bed and we would chat for hours. it was so comforting to me and I miss it soooo much.

every single one of these things. We are in the young grandkids stage and man that heals some of this. But losing your purpose, this has been that hardest part for me and my husband.

I loved being a mom to our 2 kids, but I love being grandma to our 4 grandkids also. Our daughter asked her 5 yr old who was the first person you thought of this morning? He answered Gigi (me). ❤️that's the best complement I could ever get.

As a fully grown woman who’s lost her mom. I promise your kids still call when they want you to be the first to know something. I miss being able to call her on a random Tuesday
