[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been crying every day since my daughter left for college. She was my only child, and now the house is empty and I am alone. [/quote] I've been crying every day since DS left for college. He's my second child to leave for college, but it's almost as bad as the first one leaving. I have two younger children at home, which tempers the pain somewhat, but each child is unique, and it's a terrible emptiness in the house, at the dinner table, when walking past the empty bedroom. I know it will get better after a while, but it's quite an adjustment after living with your child every day (just about) for more than 18 years! I miss both my children, but I'm used to the older one being gone, not yet used to the younger one's absence -- it feels like a real hole in my life, a fresh pain every day. Talking with him on the phone isn't the same. He's funny and adds so much energy to our household. I really miss him! [/quote]
